Broken bilge pump, dead battery, howling wind, muddy water. Just got here. Heading more south in a couple days.

That sounds exactly like every salt water trip I have ever been on.

On the other hand there is usually cold beer, great company and tons of laughs.

Cyclone isn't in that list. You're still in good shape.

If you are in FL, it has been windy as hell lately.
Not sure if going south will help.

Had 2 dead batteries the other day. Bilge pump works, but bait well pump has been dead for a while. Tomorrow is a big maintenance day. Fuses, bilge, spark plugs and fuel filters all getting changed. The water is warming up.

Louisiana. Up north now. Got the boat running this morning. Fishing was total shit. If I can't stir one up out of this lake on a brush hawg, might as well sit inside and drink beer and eat BBQ. Heading to the coast tomorrow. My scouts are sending in good reports.
