16\' boat @ bouy10, do I dare?
I am planning a trip to bouy 10 for next month. Asked my dad if he would like to go. NO WAY was his reply.
So the question is, am I nuts? Ive been there probably 12 times, but never in my boat. I have also never been out there when it turns bad. I am confident in my boating skills, but not over confident. I will take all precautions including pfd's, an eye on the tides, and a very close eye on the weather. Ive seen people out there in smaller boats, but I dont want to be one of "those people". My boat is a 16' smokercraft osprey with a 60hp, and a 5hp kicker.
