We are a seasonal group, active during the winter season. The group is comprised of MTOA members who visit or call the Florida Keys home during the months of January, February and March. The group covers the entire Florida Keys with the majority of our gatherings held in the central area of Marathon – also home to the largest cruising community in the Keys.
We normally have at least one formal get together each month and several informal gatherings such as meeting at a happy hour, a “Dinghy Drift”, or an overnight cruise to a favorite anchorage. All MTOA members and interested potential members are always welcome!
Florida Keys Regional Group Welcome Back Happy Hour
Announcing the Florida Keys Regional Group first gathering of the season – a Welcome Back Happy Hour. The event will be Friday, January 19th beginning at 4:30 PM in Marathon at the Banana Bay Marina Tiki Hut. It will be a relaxed gathering to renew friendships, make new friends, and discuss future events for our 2018 season. All MTOA members and interested potential members are welcome!
Banana Bay re-opened the Tiki Hut as the “Point Bar”, offering a cash bar for beer and wine. Musician Mike V. is scheduled to provide live music that evening. You are also welcome to bring your own beverages and an appetizer to share.
Banana Bay Marina is across the street from the Home Depot in Marathon and the Tiki Hut is at the furthest back point of the property on Florida Bay. The street address is 4590 Overseas Hwy, Marathon, FL 33050.
