I was there 3 weeks ago at the fishing pier  , unfortunately without Pagoda.
It is every year an unforgettable journey of tamp along the island to Anna Maria.

sorry, you're right. It is Sarasota with its beautiful marina, I think the many sun had blinded me. Unfortunately not seen a pagoda there this year , last year, only a blue 230sl . She stood at a dealer on the 41 near Sarasota and was in poor condition.

... but it could have been a photo from "America's Finest City"!  ;)
The statue was here for many years in front of the "Midway" and next to the Bob Hope Memorial.
