Better be careful, they are calling for 4-6' seas and 20-35mph winds tomorrow, along with a small craft advisory, not sure about the weekend though.
Have a good time!!!!

Spending today getting ready to shove off tomorrow for a 4 day cruise to Newport. Bad day to be getting ready ( I hate hot weather , I'm happy around 60 degrees). Its all planned and I took today off so heat or not , I got things to do. Leaving right now to makea trip to the boat to drop off stuff. Then its some shopping for essentials like Brie and tequila!! 
Had the boat 19 seasons now (its a Bristol 22 , great boat). Was a time when a 10 day trip to Nantucket from Guilford CT (well over 100 miles) was a big trip. Now , 12 miles to Newport from East Greenwich seems to be a big deal. I can remember when I bought the boat thinking that In about 10 years the boat would be getting old and I'd have to take it a little easier on her. Now , 19 seasons later , the boat can still go anywhere and I'm the weakest link. That's life.
Anyway , hope to fish a little from the boat on Sat with Smokey. Blues everywhere in the upper bay but I'm hoping we can scratch up a striper or two in the lower bay. Sailboats go so slow its not practical to go too far to fish but we'll troll around and if the fishfinder works , we will stop and jig deep areas if we mark fish.
