Taking a preliminary look at the weather for a week of sailing starting on the 7th. My usual sources show a North Swell building on the 9th for 4 or 5 days. Plan your itinerary accordingly. Looks like about 6 feet.

I wish you had posted this earlier! Went to Diamond Key when we saw no boats in there with the binoculars.
