If you boat in Fl's Manatee Zone infested waters, you are FOOLISH to NOT have a Bimini top! I've seen some pics in my aunt's Dr's office, (She is one of the leading dermatoligists in the south) of what skin cancer can do, all of my boats for the last 10 years have had biminis. The only time it comes down is when we run over 50 MPH.
Can't wait for memorial day,

I would probably trailer to Salt Run or Palatka for that run.

Palatka to Jax would be a good run. Our Donzi group made that trip a last year. Unfortunately, I had starter trouble.

I believe it's on FO. He has mentioned in the past about having to deal with on going skin cancer problems.
I am the Sun block COP @ my house, none of my family goes boating without sunblock on.
