Tough call...
Depends on what you feel comfortable with.
I would say the 2-4's is probably most accurate.
I use http://www.iwindsurf.com/windandwher...orecast+Graphs all of the time.
The old rule of thumb of 1ft of waves for every 5 knots of wind stands true enough of the time to use it.
With winds in the 14mph range, I would expect to see waves in the 3ft range. The winds are forecasted to subside to 12mph (2ft wave range).21ft Red Mirrocraft Open Bow w/ gray Evinrude 120 OB. Nicknamed "Sunny Daze".
Channel 79, hit me up. Can be caught perch'n or drift'n around the islands when I make it out.

wind
The Isurf is a good one. I have www.windfinder.com save on favorites on my comp. Punch in the town and it gives a prediction for 2 hour intervals and direction with the "mean" wind speed and peak gusts wind speeds. These sites are generally better than noaa. Saturdays wind looks 10-20 west then moving north then east for saturday. Sunday is east 10-20. It can change and blow itself out also. For a small boat it is tough call. I would say 3 ft waves maybe alittle higher at times. Friday is a NO go in my mind. Check out these sites and make your call
