Narrative:
I shut down #3 engine due to high oil temperature. WX was good and I secured the engine, got a vector towards the florida coast, since I was 150 mi offshore. I decided to return to miami, after evaluating the situation. I was more familiar with miami, maintenance and passenger assistance was in miami as well. ATC was more than helpful and couldn't do enough for me.
