Can we fit 15 tuna in your cooler Vic ?

Maybe a sword or two

Everytime I look at the forecast i'm expecting to see lighter wind and smaller seas - but it's not happening

Sat night 25-30k winds with 10' waves!!! That front moving in from the west also bringing the wet stuff Sunday

Capt Joe owes me a call tonight after returning to dock, I wonder what weather conditions must be to cancel?

25knt winds shut most boats down. At this point I hope he cancels. We can try and jump on another trip with more civilized conditions

leslie is shifting west, Huck is a reasonable person, I hope he decides against shoving off. Check the sea state model I posted else where.

Limit one voucher per person and unlimited as gifts
Reservations required and subject to availability; please call to book and mention your Boston Deal powered by Zozi

I WILL BE CALLING IN THE MORNING FOR SURE!

Capt Joe has failed to return my calls today. The deal to buy ends at midnight tonight! Not sure what our options are at this time.......

Nice

Matt D · 09-07-2012, 08:36 AM

Well it's looking doubtful but I gotta leave for Scusset soon. I guess I'll pack the stuff for the trip just in case.

Guess the procedure is to call 508-790-0660 the HelenH @4PM for trip status. When I called yesterday after 4 they were announcing today's BSB trip was cancelled.

iamskippy · 09-07-2012, 09:32 AM

Just tried to call myself and the phones busy

I'd cover yourself in scopolamine patches like a week old banana at a discount produce market.
