    Just had a nice little 560 mile journey, Sailfish 282

    Great info, I was concerned about the speed limit in the canal, hopefully I can do the same speeds and get through it on the quicker end. Im up the river from great bay by about 2 miles but while my moorings getting beefed up I’m keeping it there. It’s a nice spot overall. Thanks for the info!
