Forecast has a lot of rain for tomorrow.....hopefully no thunder and lightning! We will be passing each other depending on departure timing. First thing in the AM I'll be looking at radar to see if we have a window!
 
Forecast/radar shows clear until noon, then it RAINS!!!
 
Any of the groups made it yet ?
 
Yep, arrived about 1130, took about 2.5 hours, going about 28-30 mph.
 
A little faster than expected, the 19' had gas to spare after adding some 1/2 way
 
It was cool , we passed @Julian the way, within 100 yards. Great weather here, hot and partly cloudy.

Current situation: drinks and food at BBGC!

Yes, it was smooth and much better than i expected, add 5 gallon while group waiting for other boats, when we arrived, i have little less than half tank of gas, ran almost 6-7000 rpm all the time with this amazing boat and group !
