Re: Fort McRee Daybreak
You are looking out over Pensacola Pass and the "mound" you see is part of the Fort McRee ruins. Here's a chart to help. Although the chart calls it a spoils area it is actually a great anchorage with deep water right up to the shoreline.

Authorities think they found the body yesterday & they caught some low life using his credit cards in Louisiana. Seems to be some foul play involved.

Suspect is Michael Paul Rodgers.
Deceased skipper is/was James Bradley Gunther.
I keep looking for more details on case but it's gone quiet.
This is the latest I've found.
