I am planning to go. I've sailed in that area many times, and its a really nice place. Like Atlanta, usually big boards and sails are the call. Its warmer than here and the water is pretty shallow (like less than neck deep) quite a ways from shore in the bay. Winds are much less gusty than Atl, as well.

I'm planning on sailing in the longboard fleet with a 8.5 or 7.4. (I was told that the longboard fleet doesn't limit sail sizes.)

What happens in a black hole stays in a black hole.
