Tarpon Springs MLK Weekend 2019

Submitted by webguy on Thu, 01/24/2019 - 10:03

Another trip down to Tarpon Springs in January and the Atlanta crew was lucky again. Gene, Dave, Simon, Langdon and William made the trip. Saturday was a warm southern breeze at 15-20. Sunday was much cooler but still comfortable by Atlanta standards - 25-30 and 4.5s were very well powered. Monday was lighter but a great day for foiling. Bonus day Tuesday was a an offshore 15-20 from the east so a great day to rip a few jibes.
