“I’m all for the drilling, but I have a question. They’re drilling 125 miles from the Panhandle which is at the upper part of the Gulf of Mexico. Florida is about 400 miles long. So how many miles is the drilling offshore of the west of Florida? Not that it matters, but I’m curious.”

You’ll have to ask “thackney” who is our resident oil expert. :-}

213 miles, as measured from Tampa.

Map of Area 181 and South 181

That green area in the map, which was known as the "stove pipe" in the Clinton-Chiles map was excluded.
