Quote from: "Glock Diver"
So do we have a finalized date??  Let's hope for some good weather!

I was out today on a friends boat.  We had planned to go dive /spearfish Edison Reef, about 12 miles offshore.  Forecast was 2' seas.

We're on the way out there, and it is just getting sloppier and sloppier!  I mean, 3-5's, with plenty of 4's and 5's.  We finally get to the dive site, and theres one boat anchored there, bobbing UP and DOWN with the swells.  Don't know how they were holding on.  

So we decide it's too rough and would be unsafe trying to reboard the boat from the water, so we turn back and head for home, getting absolutely POUNDED and SOAKED on the way back in!

Hate it when the weather guy lies!



IF THEY ONLY HAD WINDOWS IN THE FORECAST ROOM...

Well boys, the gathering in Charleston was a great success. Hope to see you all Nov 12. We have to put our game faces on if we are to keep up and outdo those GA and Carolina boys. They know how to have a good time.

Based on the poll and people that said they could make it on the 12th but voted for the 29th, it looks like we may break the record # of boats attending a Fl gathering of 9 - maybe we'll have 11  :cheers: .

Poll will end on the 20th - looks to be the 12th. Hope the Red tide holds off - seems it's affecting me right now up here with all the W-SW wind.

Doc - got the camera all tuned up?

Hopefully the weather will be super - no super storm like last time - hey, we survived no problem.

Dave has his boat ready to rock finally - virtually new 200 Mercs on the back (everything replaced so far).  I'm starting to save for the "big fill up" - I think I have about a 1/4 tank of the 140 right now  :cry:

I'm with you on the weather, no need to separate the men from the boys this year  :D

Glad to hear Dave has the boat ready  :cheers: hopefully he won't have anymore problems for a long time.

I'm about the same with fuel, Don't look forward to the fill up  :pale:

I'll top mine off - just to be topped off.  I spent all the fuel on the Okeechobee run.
Better to have a bunch and only have to add a little to top off.

Come on Nov 12th :!:  :!:   This is going to be fun - we'll be down there on the 11th to stay the night on our boats.  If anyone wants to sleep on my boat let me know - full cover and full eisenglass wrap if necessary.  Just bring a sleeping bag - air mattress would be smart too.
