I just moved up from NC and was wondering how far the run is from Rudee to The Cigar?

Do you guys see many small boats (24 ft) out there?

Thanks in advance.

I have a 24' and have been out there many times. I pick my days though. This site is good for wave forecasts if the cigar is in dark blue no problem if it is in light blue itll be a slow run out. Any other color I would not go unless you have balls of steel.

ERIC it is a 22 ft kat that enjoys the cigar - the point - tuna hole - 60 mi is about my max though never know what the weather is going to do. Heck that was a ride the other day in Tom's 24 --- one good boat and a good driver

Yep, a hell of a driver, got me home with 100+ miles of 4-6 in a 24ft boat. Was not fun, but my butt is almost healed. biggrin.gif
