Unfortunately, where I live is in a flood zone. End of March thru all of April is prime time for spring floods. It usually is just an annoyance for me (access roads closed kinda thing) but we've had two really nasty floods in the last 4 years. Last year, due to a sump pump failing and a faulty gasket on a barrier I awoke to 24" of water in my basement. I'm still counting losses and repairing damage from that flood. Bottom line is I simply cannot take the chance of being away from the house during that time period. I'd love to go, but I'll have to pass.

One reason we arn't having this during warmer months is I'm too busy fixing peoples boats when its nice to enjoy boating, second, the hotel rates skyrocket around here when it gets warmer, third, we won't be able to use the marina when it gets warmer, fourth, you can't get the good oysters(from Bluffton) when it gets warmer. We have nice days in March, and we have cold windy days. Its a crap shoot. I'll find something to do with the boats regardless of the weather.

Any one bringing a bigger boat, the offshore Tuna bite gets going good during March, plenty of Dolphin out there to. Best place is about 70 miles out of the harbor, second best place is about 50. Better have good weather to try it.
