Pilotage Plan: Boca Grande Marina to Seahaven Superyacht Marina

Welcome aboard this meticulously planned journey from the serene Boca Grande Marina to the luxurious Seahaven Superyacht Marina. This route is designed with the discerning mariner in mind, who values safety as much as the thrill of discovery. Our voyage navigates through breathtaking coastal vistas, offering sheltered bays and engaging attractions, all while emphasizing navigational safety and adherence to local maritime regulations.

Departure: Boca Grande Marina

Your adventure begins at Boca Grande Marina, nestled on the tranquil waters of Gasparilla Island. Ensure that your vessel is properly equipped with all necessary safety gear, including life jackets, navigation lights, and updated nautical charts. Before departure, consult the local weather forecasts and tide tables to ensure a smooth journey.

Navigation to the Open Sea

As you set sail, steer toward the Boca Grande Pass, keeping an attentive eye on the channel markers that guide your path. The pass can be bustling with fishing boats, especially during tarpon season, necessitating cautious navigation. Once through the pass, set your course northward, hugging the coastline for the most scenic views.

Points of Interest & Shelter Bays

  • Cayo Costa State Park: Early in the journey, just north of Boca Grande, lies Cayo Costa, a pristine state park accessible only by boat. It is an ideal spot for anchoring, offering protection against sudden weather changes and a chance for an invigorating swim or hike along secluded beaches.
  • Charlotte Harbor: Further along the coast, Charlotte Harbor presents itself as a vast expanse of water teeming with wildlife. The harbor's leeward side provides a safe haven from unexpected storms, and its charming islands offer opportunities for exploration. Pay close attention to the marked channels here, as the waters can be shallow outside these areas.

Navigational Aids and Considerations

Throughout your voyage, maintain vigilant watch for buoys, lighthouses, and navigational aids. Nighttime travel should be approached with caution, ensuring your vessel's lighting is fully operational and visible. The region is known for its strong currents and shifting sandbanks, so an updated GPS navigation system and depth sounder are indispensable tools for safe passage.

  • Intracoastal Waterway (ICW): Depending on your exact route, you may intersect parts of the ICW, where observing speed limits and no-wake zones is crucial for the safety of both your vessel and others.

Local Regulations and Restrictions

Abide by all local boating regulations, including fishing restrictions in protected areas and speed limits near coastlines and marinas. Engage with the local Coast Guard or Marina offices to stay informed about any temporary restrictions or navigation warnings.

Arrival: Seahaven Superyacht Marina

As your journey concludes at Seahaven Superyacht Marina, prepare for docking by reducing speed and signaling your intentions to fellow boaters and the marina staff. Seahaven offers state-of-the-art facilities and a warm welcoming for weary travelers, making it the perfect culmination of a memorable voyage.
