With prices for gulf access lots in Lee County now starting at over $300,000, the boat condominium craze has hit the area. These slips look to be an interesting investment until they reach prices which reflect the incremental difference between an off-water lot and gulf access lot. The minimum pricing difference between these two types is currently about $200,000.

"We've actually had nine price increases since we went to market," said Steve Knight, co-owner of Sanibel Harbour Yacht Club at Punta Rassa near the Sanibel Causeway, where the smallest dry docks — capable of handling a 30-foot boat — have sold out at prices that started at $97,500 and reached $121,500.
