I’m not sure about the East Coast of Florida, but the Gulf side has plenty of intracoastal canals to find safe harbor in.
I’ve been up in there on a sailboat and can tell you there’s a million place you could hide, but also a lot of places you could get in trouble (low power lines, low bridges and sandbars) to name a few and these things come and go as dangerous depending on tide.
To really get around in there on a sailboat you’ll need charts and I would definitely talk to sailors/captains that know the intracoastal waterways. Last thing you want to happen is to hit a power line! Anyone who tells you that everything would be ok bc electricity will just run down the mast and shoot out the hull is an idiot!
