Alan,
If you are only in Florida for the winters why do you want to keep the
Europa there for the whole year ? You can fly it on the G registration, and
take it back home in the spring. Car ferries operate frequently between
Southampton and East Coast ports, including Florida, and their shipping
rates are quite reasonable. And unless you happen to have free storage for
the motorglider, you would save a lot on hangarage charges.
