I like the idea. But if you made it from Sarasota to Charleston, I'd love it! Put a mandatory bell-ring checkpoint at Smather's Beach, so you know everyone made the "offshore' run to Key West OK, then the punch-drunk only need to keep the beach on the left all the way to Charlie town. For me, I think VB gets logistically too distant to want to plan the shoreside issues. But keep me posted.
