Chuck

Chuck, im planning on getting out early Saturday and sailing towards Petit Bois Island (Chevron willing) but if the winds any direction other than South, SE, SW im not too keen about staying the night, had a bad expierence there a few years ago. I still would like to at least raft up for lunch and meet all ya'll. Will watch the weather and keep up on this site for more info. Thanks frank

Y'all have a good time! Maybe next time. I'll be in Destin. Looking at the water, but from the wrong perspective! I'll just have to walk a few docks and get it out of my system...

True to form

If the weather holds true to form, or at least what it has been lately, will calm down around sunset. Hopefully not too calm, as I prefer a little boat motion when I am sleeping.

Changing forecast

Forecast isn't very stable. Just checked and winds are forecast to clock all over the place. But didn't see anything over 15 knots so should be some nice sailing weather.
