I sailed down in Miami/Keys from the mid 70s to mid 80s. Every Memorial Day weekend was a disaster..
On one we sailed from Ocean Reef to Bimini on a cold front. Needless the Gulfstream was mountainous.
Another we spent anchored off Cape Florida in a steady 2 day rain.
Another was filled with strong t/storms, waterspouts. The Coast Guard had more than 200 calls for help.
Got to be a standing joke, stay off the water Memorial Day.
Sorry your weekend got screwed up.
Very true. It always seems to rain down here Memorial Day weekend. Fortunately, the booze supplies are well stocked. I guess I may just manage to suffer through after all!
