Trained for Naples waters
Hey Naples boater. Tell me what's going on — electronics issue, engine trouble, tide question for Gordon Pass, or FWC reg for Collier County. Real answers, not generic search.
Best tide window to run from Naples to Marco Island tomorrow?
For tomorrow, you want to time Gordon Pass outbound near high tide — depths drop to 5-6ft at the bar on low water, and the pass gets snotty with outgoing current meeting Gulf swell. Check NOAA Naples Bay gauge. Heading south, stay in the ICW channel past Capri Pass (shoaling on the east side). Marco runs about 45-60 min depending on your draft. Want me to check tomorrow's tides and wind forecast?
