I've been on boats in Marion - Bermuda, Newport - Bermuda, and Annapolis - Bermuda.
All great races that end up drunken furies in Bermuda.
I LOVE Bermuda alot, have some family friends who live down there. 
Whats the name of the boat kav? |

i can't remember the name of the boat he is on right now it is a different boat that he raced in the newport bermuda race, but i am sure he is going to call me soon and i will ask him. i go down there allot and lived there for 5 years. i am sure we know a few of the same people down there then if you were drinking at the rbyc that hosts the newport bermuda race or the dingy club that hosts the marion bermuda race.

Have a swizzle or 12 for me
I never did any real heavy fishing while down there... usually hitting up the piers with the handline for chub (BIG chub yum).
Spent a ton of time diving on the reefs though, lots of neet stuff and fish. |

Then you know that they get MahiMahi off Block and 2 years ago within site of Newport, Right? Hope to get the boat in on some of those this year if they come inside of Block but it's not shaping up to be warm enough BI sound temps - which is fine for the bass chaser in me

yep... and seen em off block
even find em south of the vineyard and around nomans if it gets just right
water was ~70 off wesport a few days ago... so it very well could get warm enough
we'll see though
hopefully we can get a nice warm eddy to break off and push north a bit off the gulf stream
will help things out a little
