Some rent houseboats in Marathon or Islamorada.. but that can mean a long commute.<br /><br />I agee with Scotts posting above... Punta Gorda, Ft. Myers and even Naples are much more family friendly if you have a troup of youngsters. As you know, Key West is known as the drinking town with a fishing problem.

One of these days you might think about visiting the southwest coast of Florida. You might find it a good alternative to hiking the boat all the way back to New York!
