Ed,
My schedule's wide open until September 5, when I start school. But, I'll still be open on the weekends. Where are you planning on going out of? I've got a couple two way radios that would be a must. We could have one on the boat and one in somebody's tube. The shark thing did cross my mind also. I think if we're gonna keep any fish, we either stash em in the boat, or put em on a really long stringer, like 15 ft. We could also bring a float and tie the stringer to that or something.

I just talked to my parents- I can use the car to drive down there on the 2nd Sunday of September, and possibly, but probably not the last sunday of this month. If we can find a boat to take more than 2, I could go with my friend in his truck, assuming he's not doing anything.
