Brandon is even cheaper. 35 minutes to Lakeland's south side, and 40 minutes to Gulfport
You can keep your boats at Gulfport Yacht Club.
Thanks for the good tip. I will find out on the 23rd if I get the job. Found a place in Brandon (Lakewood Shores Apts) for $541 a month for 800 sq ft and will keep the boats (Hobie 17,Mystere 4.3 and Sunfish) at Gulfport Yacht Club. They have a good race program with mostly Cats and will to Dundien Causeway now and then for races.
