This afternoon needs to be watched. WSW turning to WNW. Purgatory Cove would be the launch. If I can get out there I can show you how to get out of the cove. Anybody else thinking about it?

@ purgatory. Rigging 5.8 - windy!

Showed up at 2:30 and Reid and Glen were on the water, rigged 5.8 and headed out as they were coming in for a break, had some blazing runs and a good work out until about 4:30 then had to pack it in. Days like that in June have been rare, hope we get some more, typically I have to borrow back my big gear that my friend now has to sail in June. Hope that the wind was good up north on Wolf lake and Lake Michigan. I want to get up their and sail Little Sable and Oval Beach, keeping my fingers crossed that we will get a few good days up their.
