MrBill is on a distinguished road
Mcgolfer,
Hopefully Capt. Elliott's will give the trip an OK because of the weather forecast for the next few days. The Big E is an expensive boat, and if they don't want to take it out in rough seas I can't blame them. I've torn up a lot of equipment and fixtures on boats in the past. From what I've read, they will make the call 24 hours before departure.

I've have load myself. This crate plus 500 pounds of ice I volunteered to bring for all to use. In addition to that is all the fishing gear, fluids, etc. I'm probably bringing to much but better safe than sorry. My load will be around 1100 pounds. Look forward to meeting you and everybody else. I'll just pull up next to the crane your renting.

PS. Txseadog made me two new spinning rods. He just finished them and told me that the Oklahoma express would bring them to the Big E. I gather that is you, so if you are going by his house, don't forget my rods. Those are the only two spinning rods I plan to take. If you can't make it, let me know. I'll then go to Port A to pick up a couple and then head to Freeport.
