Chris, The sail said it's a 3.0 but did feel real small. Since I'd been blown off the water the previous day on a 3.8, I thought the 3.0 would be the call, but ... We did have a real good 4...

Chris, that was me on the small aerotech (3.0), didnt do much, I think it had slacked off for a while and I didnt have enough. Later we did all go out for a good afternoon session on 4.0's, it...

Reporting from Nags Head, the wind is so strong our house on the water is shaking in the gusts. Eric sailed this afternoon on a 3.4 meter and I rigged my smallest sail, a 3.7m. It was survival...

I finally got up the nerve mid-day to give it a try. I got about an hour or two of 3.2. I thought I...

Wild day and crazy night! Our wind-meter hit 68 last night around 2:00AM -- it sounded like freight train going through house.

I think the best way would be to go from HH to Tybee on a NE. That way you could leave from a single spot on HH and not be landing there at random places, blowing the scene there for the locals....

I am waiting until tomorrow. Planning on Galts with warmer temps and more NW. My smallest good sail is a 5.8 and that may be borderline this afternoon.
