I may try to sail Van Pugh tomorrow, depending on how much wind, how much rain, and how fast the temperature drops.

Re: Wednesday, 12/07

It looks like it's going to be a race between the rain ending and the sun setting. Perhaps someone will rig up something with this?

Lots of wind with gust into mid 30s+. I sailed 4.5 on 86 liter, Chris P sailed a 4.0. I also tried my 6.0 and 5.2 to start but got hammered. Jim C and Scott S sailed low 5s for a short while. It was really blowing!
