Quick question for those of you with a 340 or similar and experienced in South Florida waters. I have been South Florida Boating for years. Most of it in smaller crafts. I have a good friend coming to town Friday and we were planning on a run over to Bimini. Current forecast is:
SATURDAY Northeast winds 10 to 15 knots. Seas 2 to 4 feet with occasional seas to 5 feet. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop.
I always prefer a non-northerly wind, but should this concern me? In my 27 cruiser I used to run around in, that would be mildly concerning. With another 7 feet and twice the weight, I feel like we should be fine.
Thoughts?
