Saturday 1/08 - Real WINDY! & SOUP at WindSense

Anyone thinking of sailing today is invited to stop by WindSense between noon and 12:45 for some of the world's most UNhealthy Vegetable Soup.

Wind Advisory in effect from 11 am this morning to 7 PM EST this evening...

Today
Partly sunny. Windy. Highs 33 to 41. West winds 20 to 30 mph.

Need I say more. I hope to sail Van Pugh today, if the tempt is more toward the 41 instead of the 33.

Yesterday, we had some crazy wind. 15-30, 10-30, 10, 15-20, etc. At first it was real windy, then lulled down some, then came back to nice. We had 5 tired sailors, sail sizes 4.5-6.0, I sailed my new 6.0 Infinity, it does have alot range.

There are a very few (1 or 2) 2010 Ezzy's available at good prices if anyone's interested, and I'm probably ordering some wet suits on Monday. If anybody needs anything, let me know.

Hope to see a big crowd TODAY!

Another good Windy day, alot like Friday except colder. The tempt was in the low 40s when we rigged and in the mid 30s when derigging. The wind was strong and still gusty, sail sizes were 6.0 to 4.5, I sailed my 5.2, and we had 5 tired sailors at the end of the day.
