Stay as close to shore as possible. I like to travel about 300 yards (meters) off the beach in about 20 ft (6 meters) of water. Trying to avoid the Gulf Stream by going around it to the east does not work and adds a lot of extra distance.

Stay inshore. The stream can actually touch the coast at Palm. You'll know if that's the case. If so, move offshore enough to regain your speed over the mud.

] ]Further, inshore you can sometimes catch a countercurrent, and, as well, depending on which way the wind's already blowing, get some help from the shore convection during the day.
Our rule was "sail close enough that you can see the smiles on the faces of the people on the beach"...
Somebody here likely has, also, a US Navy daily report on the stream's (and counter currents) speed and location, via graphical representation (not with lat/long specs). I used it a lot in our up-and-downs the last couple of years but not doing that now, have lost track of the links...

The trick is to track your speed over the mud to see if your course needs adjusting. If he has a boat which can clear 65' he can also go inland.

Staying close in, just off the beach, has a lot to recommend it for various reasons. The inside route from Ft Pierce to Miami has about 30 lift bridges, almost all on inconvenient opening schedules.
