After looking at the thread, will there be a section for the participants that are not old, decrepit, bald, fat, toothless, and drunk? :thumbsup: :occasion14:
seekerGH, I'm sure there will be people at the cookout that have hair and are skinny in the men's category. The women are all beautiful. Don't take my word for it. Show up and check for yourself. I'll be with the old, decrepit, bald, fat, toothless, drunk, and mean old men.

Ropefish, heard you could'nt get out today to check that wreck because of weather.
Call aqflit tonight. The other 3 old men got to their site today and hit 3 non ferrous targets with the pulse star.
I heard they may need your help Monday morning.

Hey old man, we got to the inlet and Bill turned around. I said "c'mon man we can make it." Bill turned around and went under the bridge right to the breakers I said NO WAY, turn around. So we tried. I heard you got to your site but nobody would get in the water.

Ahem...
John?
bite me.
I know you know better.
I bet a good maritime horror story book could be compiled from just treasure boat captains, much less commercial fishing guys, about gnarly trips through the Sebastian Inlet, especially with today's conditions -an ESE wind at 16-22 kts and an outgoing tide. Standing waves, anyone?

Nice - we also ran into them while we were eating lunch @ Squid Lips. Still looks buoyant with a ton of gear, big a$$ blower and 6 sides of beef on board ;)

Here's a pic from inside -

Go for it

"Better to be onshore wishing you were at sea, than at sea wishing you were onshore"

The Fisheye Nautique with Zodiac pontoons would have gone for it. Even without the pontoons.

Or this IMG_1195.JPG IMG_1196.JPG IMG_1197.JPG

The depth charge launcher on the back helps if there is any coquina or condominiums in your way.

Joska, I did make it to the cookout and kept looking at the name tags, but never saw you. I was even privileged enough to actually hold one of the Royals in my hand. Awesome!!! Maybe sometime we could hookup at the beach for some hunting? I live in Daytona and would just have to arrange my work schedule.
