Thanks for the hint on route.
the boat i'm considering is a trawler with ~$100k asking.
I have the experience of towing a car from Ohio to NYC, so initially thought about towing a boat could also be an economy option on water. it also avoid any mechanic issue along the way. Now I see it's not. The distance from FL is too long for all options.
Yeah, even east coast of Florida is a long way. Our delivery trip from Ft. Myers to Annapolis was 1124 NM... so I expect subtracting Ft. Myers to Stuart and then adding Annapolis to NY would still make your distance in the neighborhood of 1200 NM plus or minus (depending on where you might start in Florida).
If you're using Yachtworld, you can filter region to Northeast and Mid Atlantic... for candidates closer to reasonable distances...
