Why would I want to do that when I already have 3 safe, deep water
inlets in NE Florida? Real men and real boats run offshore past most
of NE Florida.

Small boats with limited range, low transoms, inexperienced operators
and dubious sea keeping ability run for cover where ever they can find
it. Florida east coast USCG recommends 24 ft as the minimum for
offshore fishing based on their capsize statistics. That jibes with
my experience.

Where the heck are you? Are you still in the Carolinas or are you back
in the land stolen from the Pequot?

Still in SC - haven't decided when I'm heading back - probably Friday
or Saturday.

Not the Pequot - the Nipmucs.

Hey - they all look alike to me too. :)

There can't be many Nipmucks left.

Let me know if you want to wet a line Saturday. The weather report is
"iffy," but the forecasters aren't known for accuracy.

About as many as "real" Pequots or Mohegans.

10-4.

How many offshore capsizes have you enjoyed?

Oh...why would you want those inlets? Because with your RV barge, you
probably couldn't. It would be a test of your meager inlet running skills.

Keep on sputtering, Wayne, and let us know when you take that big manly
floating RV of yours through a big manly inlet. Matanzas...that'll be a
good test of seaworthiness for you and your barge.
