.WSW is not so good for Clinton Lake. I decided to just make the best of it in the warm water down near the bridge. On the way out starboard it was shitty wind which is hard to explain but true, maybe because I had to head up wind so much. Port coming back in was very short runs but got lots of speed and had chop to jump off. I had some good jumps, I feel the seat harness has I lot to do with me being able to plain quickly and get speed to launch off of whatever is there. Anyway, try one you may like it for lake sailing and go back to it. Had a good time and stopped of at the Power House pub after, not a bad day.

I sailed here at home (small inland lake, northern Indiana). Wind was up and WAY up at times. Lake was covered in white smoke as I dug out my 4m to put on the 80 liter wave board.
Didn't stay out long because my feet froze, but that's what I get for hating booties :dry:
Would be nice to get these types of days in the summer!

Damn, you sailed barefoot? What was the water temp? That's hard core!
