So we're going to P'Cola in a couple of days for some sailing, eating, and seeing different stuff. I highly anticipate the trip and the boat is as ready as she ever gets. I'm sure we'll run across some of the BEER Cruisers but we're sorta doing our own thing. I hope the Florida mosquitoes are not as hungry as the Mississippi ones. Those suckers in the 'Sipp ain't playing  :o

Years ago we took the Mac26 to Tampa/St. Pete. Night was approaching and I was talking to the dock master. Asked him about the mosquitoes. He said "what mosquitoes?" I slept in the cockpit that night and it was glorious! Not a vermin one. Here's to a great time for you.

Mosquitoes and no-see-ums can make a trip miserable. I have a net I hang above the birth to keep them off me at night.
Hopefully you'll have minimum encounter with them.
