September through to April is just fine warm to hot sailing weather here Jake, AND no snow, no hurricanes, no tornadoes, hardly even any thunderstorms and sea breezes from 15 to 20 knots most afternoons. You can see why it is such a "pain" for us when the weather actually does turn into "winter"
You would be made more welcome here than you would be "going home" for thanksgiving there Jake. There is an unwritten law here Jake, that if we don't make visitors welcome they shut off our supply of beer, and that's "not a matter of life or death" (metaphor?) “it's much worse than that” (literal fact)!
