@johndiver999 How is this windguru app? Have you used windy?

I use both, I can't give an opinion on which is better. Seems like they are close anyway, normally.

Thanks will check it out. My search for an all in one weather app that i like continues.
What a great day with Narcosis out of the very south side of Riviera Beach Marina.
First time with Narcosis in five years (!) so it was a good chance to get to know each other.
First dive was a series of wrecks I’ve never been on (and can’t remember the name for the life of me). No matter, I definitely remember the three healthy bull sharks we saw. Moderate current to the north. Viz was great - probably 25 meters.
Second dive was Breakers Fourth Window (drift dive along a reef). Moderate current. Viz down a slight bit due to cloud cover. Saw a sharp-tailed eel out in the open and then got to spend some quality time with a healthy adult lemon shark that slowly lapped around us about four times.
Big points on the board for Sarah (guide) and her daughter for letting me stay down and keep cruising well past the 60 minute mark. Just like that, Narcosis won me over as a repeat customer!
We were treated with a hawksbill turtle at the very end, nestled under a ledge and dozing the day away.
Big highlight for me was getting to meet @CosbySweater . Thanks, brother, for the great conversation! Looking forward to linking up again - maybe next time we can team up to bug hunt.

It looked like a Post Card on the inlet camera and just flat topside with beach sand sunshine & 80 degree tee shirt & sandals weather that makes Palm Bch County famous for winter vacations. Thanks for the report !!!

I was great meeting you and chatting on the boat. It’s always fun to meet sb’ers in person! Let’s definitely try to dive together the next time you make it over.
The wreck site we did is called Governors River Walk (or “Governors” for short).
We went out yesterday (Wednesday), north of the inlet. Vis was hazy, maybe 30ft in morning and 40ft in the afternoon. The current started off light and became stronger as the day went on. We ran into some friends on another boat, and they were complaining about vis being around 20, but they were diving shallower than us (under 80ft). The vis possibly opened up as you went deeper. We were in the 90+ ft range.
