I know they got a late start which was hampered by that storm on Friday but it is hard to completely cancel an event once the boats start arriving. I think lots of planning is made. But I agree, saftey is most important. I recall a couple tourny's I fished when I was a younger, they would shorten the event to one day but I have not seen it outright canceled. Sat was no picnic either offshore. I was out in my hobicat and my son had the handheld GPS and we hit 24knots!

Speaking of saftey, I had my VHF on in my kitchen on late Saturday afternoon and heard the CG talking about a boat in distress 4.5 mi SW of Nomans, they get an EPIRB distress alert from a boat in the tourny. I didn't get the details because I was headed out to dinner with some guests but did anyone hear of a problem this weekend?
