What was the water like coming out of Key West when you were on the outside? I talked to Bob and Shari last night and they were going to stay until today. I think it was just an excuse to get in one more night of drinking.

WHat he said outside of Key West. From MIA to Pompano was a different story.

Bob and Shari were on that 47 Reggie Cruizer with the triple diesels.
Keith..the owner..told me they were questioning going because they were running from K.W. to Ft. Myers.
In the middle of their trip it was forecasted to be 5-6 headon seas.
I figured it could take it but he said it would be like bow up..bow down and VERY wet over the front.
Go figure for that price boat.
Bob told me on the way down in the N.W. Passage just outside K.W. they were almost 5's standing straight up and he didn't think it was that bad a ride.
It was a lovely decked out boat.
