Its not looking good, is it?
« on: January 07, 2009, 07:01:42 PM »
Offshore sea bass departing Friday night January 9 and returning Saturday evening January 10.  NOAA and the Weather Channel is not painting a good picture.

What do you think?

Thanks.

Not looking all that bad. 2-4 inshore forcast till late Saturday night, them building to 5-6.

Boat will probably still sail if the forcast remains the same.

The boat will not sail if it is 30+ winds. The seas/ wave heights are fine. This time of year the report can change hourly.

I know Joe.  I love these trips.  But they can be very frustrating.  You are a slave to the weather radio and the weather channel.  Well what can you do.  Maybe it wil work out or if not, hopefully there is a next time.

Crossing my fingers for you!  Weather always rules, especially this time of the year.
