1681.0. "NE Gulf sailing conditions" by OTOA01::BARNARD () Mon Mar 11 1991 15:25

    I am interested in knowing what the sailing is like in the north
    part of the Gulf of Mexico on the Florida side. In particular the 
    sailing out of the Tallahassee area. Also how far is it to Tampa from
    there and to the Dry Tortugas. What are the prevailing winds and their
    average speed.
    
    Thank you.

    I'm only a wannabe sailor here in Sarasota, but a charter captain told
    me it  was a 30 hour sail  from here to Fort Jefferson in the Dry
    Tortugas
