BB was much better (while staying in tight)
It's hard when your desire to get out supersedes your choice to make the better decision.
You can know your boat in and out, how it handles and such...
but with the weathermen being so off some times.... 
I try my best to side with caution. |
Saturday's forecast was for 10-15 NE. I new it would be bumpy but figured 1-2 with the occasional 3 footer. It was easily 15-20 with gusts to 25 and solid 3-5' chop. Real snotty. Everyone enjoyed the wakeup wave in the face as I plowed through the east end rip at 4 am which was stood up about 5' with the wind directly in our faces. I wish I could do my job as poorly as the weather man…We ended up in Bbay too. Mostly at Ables and the edge of Hog Island, just scupin with the kids.
