    Final weather forecast. Sunny Thursday through Sunday. Highs in the low to middle 70's and nights in the middle 50's. Someone is watching out for us.

    Plenty deep. The deep end is about 30 feet. Shallow end is an incline and goes deeper as you walk. But it's plenty deep to launch even a huge boat.

    It looks like the weather will be prefect. Seems Bob Martin is the luckiest guy to crap between between two legs. 70's in day and 50's at nights. No rain.

    We will be having low country boil and possibly steak, baked potato and salad for anyone who wants it and the venue served a light breakfast and lunch last year plus there is the Red Wolf Grill just up the road if you'd rather have something like that.

    Someone bring a grill and we can cook out.

    I will confirm with Darrell if we are still meeting Thursday evening for dinner at Anejos or if we need to do something different.

    Looks like the weather might be different from last year. Extended forecast calling for high 80’s to low 90’s with overcast. Could mean some swimming.

    I just got my stock of official SUBFEST t-shirts and they are AWESOME! SO comfortable. I have my first batch here, but there will be limited stock, so get yours while you can! All proceeds go toward offsetting the (not-insignificant) cost of putting on the event, so every bit helps.

    Registered sub skippers get a free shirt, but anyone can purchase online and at the event. Here is the link.

    As of right now, I'm planning on sending the event materials up with Jason and his son. He will get there Thursday afternoon. I will be flying up on Thursday afternoon myself, landing in Dalton. All in, that will save me about 14 hours of driving time for the up and down trip.

    If anyone is located along my flight path between Naples, FL and Dalton, GA, I'd entertain the idea of landing at a nearby airport, picking you up, and then dropping you off again on the way back on Sunday afternoon.
