Chris, no weather module yet on Capt. Fred's boat, but it was not a big problem seeing the storms with the 4KW radar and avoiding the worst of them on Sat. We did get a few minutes of real heavy rain trying to squeeze between cells near the inlet, but no lightning. The 4210 is awesome, best part of it is the bathy charts. We got several fish on Sat. just from me poking around in what looked like fishy spots on the bathy charts, including a very large barracuda, which we released. It was pretty rough going out both days, we had 5 hoisters on Sat., and the barracuda. Sunday we had 3 bailer sized dolphin, got short on small ballyhoo, so went out to the deep billfishing, but no joy. There were tuna busting in the 230-280 rocks area, but we didn't get a sniff, I think some of the charter boats picked up a few--also saw a white released by a charter right next to us.
