How fast can conditions change 50 miles out from shore on the Atlantic?
That's not the right question.
The issue is how much can conditions change while you are returning
from xx miles offshore. If you typically get 30 minutes warning
before a severe thunderstorm, and it's going to take 2 hours to get
back into port, those are not very good odds.
Well, as my middle name is not Heyerdahl, I'll probably stay within sight
of land in my little 18 footer.
