According to the link above, courtesy of the Gainesville Sun, it looks like the Fort could be in trouble, because the state is looking at possible closing the state park.

Closing the park would mean closing the boat ramp, right?

..This is a scary prospect!

Couldn't they just charge a $2 launch fee? Seems like they'd make a killing that way.

Is there anyone out there with more intimate knowledge of the situation?

The ramp and park are seperate from the Fort

fyu

The boat ramps, parking lot, restrooms, and pavillion all are owned by the City of St. Marks not The State of Florida. The state does own the fort and the property west.

Aint that what I said "basiclly"

If they close the Fort, what is going to happen when the yankees come up the river ?

[wevans]

They'll just load up their boat and leave with them 50 or so short Trout they caught, same as always

The Fort is not included in that list. It says "St. Marks River State Park- Leon County" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Marks_River_State_Park That's the way I understood it.

There's yankees planning on coming up the river? You guys were supposed to help me feel better about this situation.

They're not so bad as long as they don't stay.

By the term "Yankee's" you mean anything above I-10 right? I've hardly ever seen any vehicle tags other than Georgia or Alabama.
