Galts report-Eddie & I very to over powered on 9.5 & 8.5. 7.0 would have been ideal. Pretty steady. warm water. Looks like full pool to.

Deck boat almost ran into me at Galts. He finally gave way with less than 50 feet.

We had a good turn out of about a dozen windsurfers at Van Pugh. I was rigged just right on a 7.0 meter sail. Peggy went with me, so we packed a picnic lunch & made a day of it.

I was following Chris as he lifted up on his foil when a power boat full of people nearly ran him over. No exaggeration- he almost got kilt. Morning was great, but boats became a hazard in the afternoon.
