I’l be in St Joseph area tomorrow and then near little sable. Any input on if wind and what gear would be appreciated. Thinking 5.2 and 5.8 would do it but the forecast I’m seeing is grim. Bringing some gear anyway.

I don't see anything for St. Joe. For Little Sable Point 5.8 to 4.2

Thanks Reid! Seems I’ll get some good wind for the second leg of my Bday vacation. Bringing 5.8, 5.2 and 4.7.

Not having good luck with the wind. Hopefully today I’ll get some rides before we have to head back. It’s really nice up here regardless, awesome place! My son surfed the dune out in front of our beach cabin.

Wendell, hope you got some good sailing. I am disappointed I had to leave. It seemed it was building, let me know how it went.

It really filled in and picked up after you left. Waves picked up, but were still pretty messy on the outside unless you got really far out. Great time. I sailed alone for about an hour an a half before i was too overpowered on a 6.0. Greg Kirby went out on a 4.7 and sailed until dark. Said it just keep building all night. He considered it his best day all year. Surprised it was just us. Awesome day.
