Do you guys ever go out LWI and back in Jupiter and run back inside, seems logical to me since I used to slog back outside all the time.

Dixon, I often do that, as I normally launch at the NPB village ramp since it's close and usually not crowded. It's about 5 mi. north of LW inlet however, so a run back to LWI is about 10 miles further for me. That's a good option if it's really rough, but there are a couple of long manatee/slow speed zones, one from just inside Jupiter inlet all the way to the Indiantown road bridge, and another one about a mile or so, both sides of PGA bridge. There's also a short one near a boat ramp just south of Donald Ross bridge. The signs for it are hard to spot among all the docks so be careful there, as it's heavily patrolled, esp on weekends.
If it's only 2-3' outside, it's probably faster to run back outside, esp. if you launch at Phil Foster park or points south. Denny
