Default I was THIS close... LOL

Our last tournament of the year was this morning, with high winds and at one
point two foot waves. I don't see how you guys go through anything worse
than that, but I can see how a larger boat would have handled it better than
my 17' Nitro. We launched at 6:00am and returned at 2:00pm. 15 Boats, team
format (5 fish limit)

My partner couldn't make it so I fished solo, and placed 6th. One third of a
pound behind 5th place, and one third of a pound out the money. Bah...
there's always next year.

There is always next year. You did ok with 6th out of 15. I wish I
had a 17' Nitro to complain about.
