Re: Tues. NW Wind

I’m planning to get up there around lunchtime.

Does anyone know the name or have contact info for the guy that rents efoils and sups near the lake?

Hey Scott I'll be at Old fed Campground last week of the month, I 'll have my foil drive with me if you want to try it out just text me. It's not as strong as a E-foil and the e- foil time is limited to 15-20 minutes per charge.. (30 min if you are good)

VP 10 :20 no wind to speak of. Guessing I'm too early 58 degrees water and 63 air. Sun's out and looks nice day to be outside.

Neil would be proud of you maintaining the wing early bird status. Good Meanwhile, us lazy wind guys are still having our morning Joe. Lol

Fun. Flukey and gusty but fun. It was 81 driving up and the water still around 60.
Wing: Roland, Scott and Troy (great job, Troy! His second time out.)
Wind: Alan, Barret, both Chris V and C, Gene and moi.

6.5/7.0 seemed to work well and I think both Barrett and Alan had 8s. Robert stopped by and snapped some of Alan.

12:30 Just south of old Fed campground there is dark water and looks kind of steady and maybe enough wind to give it a try. Sail boats seem to be leaning good. Maybe 8 mph. Maybe it will pick up. I wish I had JBs 8m CWC right now.

Side note, The. Campground people say Old Fed park should be open this weekend. But they weren't sure of that is Saturday or Sunday. I'd assume Saturday. It's not open today.

Side side note, Van Pugh Campground is going to be open this season. Sad
