This needs to be watched. We've had a lot of 4:00 pm blows this year. Forecast has been downgraded twice. It's hanging by a 6.9 thread. WSW wind - Marina launch and head up to the main pool. If this wind even happens. Water temp at the coldest part of the lake(West side) is now 81 degrees F. Breakout the Lycra and board shorts.

Sunday is starting to look really good for the awesome road launch ! A very high chance of work getting in my way though :(

Yep, I'm watching Sunday too. Today may, or may not, work out.

Just got an upgrade for today. 4:00 pm blow. Map is in ET time. Should start to ramp up after 1:00 pm.

Are you sure it is safe for him? Is he legally allowed to use real adult equipment? I think you should leave him to his toys for a few more years. :lol:

I’ve heard his boards and sails gain value while in his possession and he makes a profit when he sells them!

Total rainout. The storms spawned right over the lake. Got some pics of Rich on his Falcon 159 with his beautiful 9.6 Neilpryde before the rain hit.
