We are going up Sunday. Meeting another boat around the Sanibel Yacht club for a 10am departure. As old school said the weather does not look favorable. Shoot me a PM and I will give you my phone number so we can touch base Saturday if you want to run with us.

You can always run ICW up if it's too bad out. Still a nice ride.

Looks as though it is a no go for tomorrow. Weather forecast is awful.

We are going to go for it. Looks as though we may hit a small cell around Cabbage Key then clear after that. Leaving from the Cape Coral Bridge at 10:30.
