Hi MrPhil.

I am up the South Fork of the New River on a canal.
Are ya in the same area?

Just got back from 5 days at Elliot Key.
Got some nasty squalls down there. Clocked one at 41 knots in the gusts..Gale conditons for sure, but they run out of steam after 20 to 30 minuttes, then the sun shines again...

Hi MrPhil,

The Keys are a great area to sail.I had my boat down there last April.I went on out to the Dry Tortugas from Key West. Great trip to make. I envy you being down there. Fair winds to you!
