NOAA vs Navy
06 January 2008 | Lake Sylvan
Well the NOAA weather man was calling for 10-15 out of the east, and 3-5 ft seas out of the NE. The "Naval Wave" site called for the seas to be out of the ESE. I should have listened to the Navy!!! The seas were 3-5 out of the east along with the wind. Which made for a bit of a rolly ride heading SSW. Then the winds crapped out and went to the south. It went from a 7-8 knot ride to a 4-5 knot ride. So instead of a long ride to Miami, it turned into a moderate ride to Ft. Lauderdale. "Xanadu" and I decided it would be wiser to quit early rather than come into the Port of Miami after dark!!!!!! SO here we sit in Lake Sylvan, Ft Lauderdale. With a trawler with 8 gay guys( I am not guessing they came over and said Hi), in front of us and a boat full of nude people to side of us, ain't Florida grand? :)
