This looks like a fun day in the 5.7-5.2 range maybe. Would be good to sail something else besides the extremes of my quiver . Anyone?

I'm looking at it. Looks like a nice late afternoon when it shifts.

I'm planning on being there by 3 ish. Marina?

Wednesday 04.17 5 years 4 weeks ago #4

Yeah the Marina can best deal with 170 degrees rolling to 190 degrees. I think Ady will vote for the Marina too.

Looks like 5.8 to 4.7, S to SSW, all the way to sunset. Hoping I can wear my 3.2 suit. Water temp took a hit. But she's making a comeback.


West Side

Update: Boys, they took the 190 degrees out of it . Direction looks 170 to 180 until dark. I think we'd be better off launching at West Side.

West Side is good with me. But, dang 11 degrees colder than the Bridge Pool last week....that's gonna be a shock to my system :ohmy:

Update 2: Hang on, they took pity on Rich and put the 190 back for the Marina. :lol:

They put the strength back too.

Bloomington is starting to look good already and I’m approaching Dwight.

Here. Time to apply some sunscreen on me and the UV Tech on my old 3/3 and get another season out of it.

Damn, missing it! My mind is in some type of shock. Hope everyone that can sail is sailing, don’t take if for granted.

Nice day today. The beautiful weather with air temperatures in the upper 70s and water at 60 F allowed me to use my short sleeves 3 mm wetsuit and the S shifting to SW wind to use sails that are not at the both ends of my quiver. I started with 5.7/94 and later switched to 4.7 mirroring Reid’s setups pretty much. Had lots of fun on the water and the traditional beer and pork chop im the Power Jibe after that. I even brought home an unwanted hitchhiker -a deer tick. A stupid one it turned out because he was just going around exploring instead of doing what ticks do and now is dead the poor bastard. Some pictures I was able to put together while having my Leffe home. Had lots of fun and some nice jibes unlike the last time on Wolf.
