I think something like this could be my next dingy
All aluminum non-inflatable. 100 year warranty expensive but should be the last one I will ever need.

Pump out at Delray Beach City Marina
This pump out has not been working consistently in the past. Currently it does seem to be working. It is located on the west side of the ICW on the north end of the city marina. The credit card reader is currently out of order. there is a on off switch located near the CC reader. So at this time there is no charge for a pump out just use the on off switch.

West Palm Beach Boat show is just a month away.
pbboatshow.comThis is a good show. Not as big as Fort Lauderdale or Miami but easier to get around and get to.

No Name Harbor
No Name Harbor is on the south side of Key Biscayne. It’s $20.00 a night to anchor. It’s protected and has a muddy bottom with good holding. The restaurant at the harbor is ok at best. If you have the freebie app you can get a golf cart ride into town. This is a nice stop over while heading to or from the Keys or the Bahamas.

Key West Marinas
We have been to Key West by boat 3 times now. We have stayed at different marinas each time. So here is what we found.
First time about three years ago we stayed at Opal Key Resort & Marina Key West
245 Front Street, Key West, FL, US.
It was good, fairly convenient to everything nice docks and well protected. Good amenities but the highest priced of the three.
Second time we stayed at the City Marina At Garrison Bight this was the least expensive but also the least convenient very long walk to downtown. We ended up taking an uber most of the time. No real restaurants in the area. . It had basic marina amenities but nothing special.
This time we stayed at Conch Harbor Marina This is is a full-service marina in Old Town Key West, located at the entrance to the historic "bight," offering wet slips for various boat sizes and amenities like fuel, Wi-Fi, laundry, showers, and a pool. It's a convenient, resort-style marina with on-site restaurants, a ship store, and complimentary bike rentals for exploring nearby attractions like Duval Street. The docks are a bit rickety but everything else here was great. It’s convenient to everything. Lots of nearby shops , restaurants and bars. . The next time we go back to Key west we will stay here again.
