GL: Where to park a boat in Keys in December

[Kristine Fletcher]

We spent last winter in Marathon at Sombrero, It's a nice place. We had
friends that moved there boat from Sombrero to a mooring for a week, while
they were gone home. They got in trouble with the marina for leaving their
boat unattended. How will your batteries get charged, or are you willing to
trust them for a month?
