August 5 & 6, 2022 by Bob Fogg August 12, 2022
Southwesterly winds have been continuing to prevail for an extended period of time with the magnitude dropping to a light breeze for our trip on Friday. We were greeted by a cumulus cloud column on our way out to help mask the hot summer day ahead of us in the Gulf Stream. A few Red-necked […]
Sustained Sou'westers July 29 & 30, 3022 by Ed Corey August 2, 2022

The wind was against the current today so the blue water was a bit sportier than the nearshore, shelf waters […]
