Friday Wind - Who's Going?

The forecast for this afternoon looks promising - much warmer than yesterday & sunny. I plan to sail at Van Pugh.

By the way, Gene, Chris & Dave D. & I went to Van Pugh yesterday afternoon. Dave decided it was too cold & gusty, Gene went out for a while, but quit early for the same reasons. I unrolled my 7 meter sail and and Gene drove off. At that moment the wind came up strong & steady. It blew into the cove, so there was no wind shadow. Chris & I stayed with the sails we had rigged. Chris sailed a 5.2m & I was on a 6.0m. It was one of the best sessions of the year.

Photo - Chris P. sailing his 5.2m toward shore at the end of yesterday's epic session.

Always appreciate the reports and pics even while I'm moping around because I couldn't go. Glad it's getting warmer.
