Stephan, loved the photos you posted of surfing the Arctic. Randy - you missed a great session to test out your heated wetsuit! It was a sub-Arctic 38F when we got off the water. Note the calm winds in those surfing photos. Brrrrr - The wind was blowing 20 mph out of the NW when we changed out of our wetsuits in the parking lot = a wind chill of 27F or 15F according to the old calculator that includes wet skin.
I'm planning to sail today & tomorrow. F'cast today looks WSW @ 12-22, peak@4:00. VP.
I plan to sail tomorrow afternoon, Thurs. Anyone else going to Van Pugh?

I'm not sure I'm going to make it today (Thurs) and if I do, it will middle of the afternoon. I do hope to sail tomorrow for sure, if it blows.
