I say go for it. ;) ;) ;)

When you are in the bay's, if the weather changes,
they are still protected and the waves generally don't kick up as high as in the ocean.
I am not saying it won't be rough, I've been thrown around pretty good in the Delaware.

Also if a surprise thunderstorm comes up,
you have enough warning to get to any safe harbor to tie up and ride it out.
