Just got of the water, it was 67 degrees and blowing 25k all day. I sailed my 6.6 and 116L most of the locals were on 5.0 to 5.5. You could tell I was a tourist since I was in my shorty. Water was a warm 65 degrees since the temp down here has been in the 80's. Local Forecast was for 5-10 today, weather underground had it at 5-10, as well as the weather channel, so there you go. I had originally planned to get Tabitha out for some learning but since it blew she sat and watched her old man. I think I owe her a trip to disney world. I made two loop attempts today actually on purpose, but I cant seem to keep my feet in the straps and both times I landed in my back, its only water.

Wednesday, wind was great started off on a 8.4, then down to 6.6 once again. Turned a little cooler had to break out my 5/3 wetsuit, but still flat and the water was really warm. For some reason I was sore all over, from lack of bubble wrap.. I arrived that moring at 8:15am and all the water was gone so I sailed off the Northwest side of the beach out to the island and back dodging schools of Dolphins, (not football players). Didi I mention I love it here. Water came back on the inside around noon, I think the full moon tweaked the tides a little.
