Default Florida Flying

Since the weather up here in Michigan is horrible, again, I'll be heading to sunny Naples, FL on the 21st. I need some time in an RV-7A and am wondering there is someone in that area who would take me flying in their bird. My -7A is ready to fly, but I'd like to get a little time first.
Any CFI's available in Naples/Ft.Myers with an RV-7?

Check out Jan Bussell he's great to fly with and located north end of Lake Okeechobee. I had 4 hours with Jan before I started building my RV7A and flying my friend RV6A.
Jan has 3,500 hours of instruction include 700hrs in the 160hp RV-6A and 400hrs in the 180hp RV-6. His website is below.

I had transitions training from Jan a month before I did my first flight.
We did about 4 hours which included soft field TO&L. I had no reservations about doing the first flight. I highly recommend him.
