This winter I've struggled through 3 cams and 2 complete engine rebuilds to get to Florida and today the high was 60 with 25knot winds and 7 to 10'seas! I thought you Florida boys were bragging on the weather a few weeks ago! :rolleyes:

You've heard the story on Florida weather....

If you don't like the weather here in Florida, just wait 10 minites, it'll change.......

The temp dropped today with the new influx of snowbirds. They all opened their suitcases at once and let out this nasty cold front :) It was 75 and perfect yesterday. It is supposed to warm by the weekend. Where are you in Fla?

Going to be a REAL COLD night way up north here in Jacksonville (Florida). I don't have to worry about the Z3250, because she is in her slip and the water temp is still about 58 deg. The 18 is in her bay in the boatel. High and dry but near that same water.
This weekend the Jacksonville Performance Boat Club is doing a photo shoot offshore with a helicopter. 24 boats headed out. I was asked to be the lead boat in my Z3250. I was honored to do so. Donzi's are still regarded with respect, even by the other boat guys. Don't let the OFO chatter get you fluffed up. They all wish they had a Donzi!

Windy is right! You gotta have a death wish to venture out today. I was at the beach today (looking at a 26 ZX) and the it was like being sand blasted.
