Not to rub it it But you need to come down to Florida. We did a 100 mile run yesterday. Nice day with a 2 foot chop and 78 degree weather. The water was still to cold to jump in since it was only 68 degrees.

Late March, early April is about the earliest the weather allows at LOTO.

Could be an early year here at LOTO. We never got alot of cold hard freezing weather. Water temp is still about 45, and probably won't be going down any more so who knows. Could dewinterize and if close to water not worry too much. Not sure thats what I'll do tho.
