Would it be safe to take a Quintrex 470 Coast runner tomorrow?

If it was me
I'd go early and be back in around 12 noon before the wind picks up - I know seabreeze say maybe 18kt's, but with the way its been and the forecast following I wouldn't trust it 100%.
But if you dont feel right or safe, then pull stumps and head in.

Ohhh
It's normally pretty good, exept one time when it looked good but then we got out there and it kept picking up and the swell picked up had a horrible time on the way in but that boat can do anything i swear

Go Early should be ok
Saturday: S/SE winds 5/10 knots shifting SW 10/15 knots mid morning and
increasing to S/SW 18/23 knots in the afternoon. Seas to 1.5m. Swell 1.5m to
2.0m.
Im going out in a smaller tri hull glass boat, but will stay inside cockburn sound until I suss it out.
Check in etc, safety gear, take it easy.

The SW helps me home anyway
The bathtub rides really well in a following sea if you get the speed right so it makes for a smooth/dry run home to Woodies.
Anyway good luck, and post pics! Im trying a broad front tomorrow with the intention of comming home with a feed of something between shellfish, fish and cephalapod:D
