I spent the day on juliette kayaking and fishing but took a board just in case and it paid off around 4pm ..warm, breezy and super flat water.

Thurs, sailed 7.0 on 104 liter board, super flat water, worked on jibes for several hours, getting worst instead of better, must be too flat. Then Nitrojiber (chris) came out and nailed a...

The gamble paid off. Excellent 6.5 conditions from 5:00 to 6:00. Not too gusty and planning most of the time. Many shore to shore runs separated by dry jibes. Felt like Hatteras. If I closed...

Wednesday, 5.2 on 104 liter, like Elizabeth said, good for jibe practice, I need it.
I cant believe we've had so much wind in a row, 4 days and my biggest sail has been my 5.2. Love it...

A steady AND cold wind, but yes -- another fun session (in Rodanthe)! Not the early bird here -- did not make it onto the water until later in the morning. Started out on a 4.7 and then a 4.2,...

We had a nice day in Nags Head as well. Randy got out early on a 3.7m followed by Albert on a 4.5m. Eric & I had steady wind sailing 5.2's from 10:30AM until 1PM. Randy went back out after...

Unreal day. Arrived about 9:30 and rigged a 9.0. Sailed awhile fully powered. Rigged a 7.5 and sailed a while fully powered. Then rigged a 6.6 and sailed until about 3:30. 4+ hours on the water...

Had a nice 5.2 afternoon session, had to go on the bigger (104 liter) board, very nice. Now things have calmed way down, it might be time to try to figure out the Kites, may wait until tomorrow...

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...

Nice shots. I like how you can see the 'wind smoke' in the background...
Anybody gonna try the Ocean. I may sail the Ocean on Thursday off AVON. Tough Shore break but monumental waves.

Your sail looked ridiculously small Gene. I honestly thought it was a something like a 2.0!

I know that we have missed two really epic days in Augusta -- I hate that! When its this freakin windy though, it nice to be sailing in the flatter waters of Hatteras.
I agree with you on...

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...

Headed to Galts now... looks like it's tailed off a little.. be there by 5
Dang, its back up to 50-60 again today. I saw someone doing OK on a 2.7, but I see big guys floundering on 3.7s.
Wild day and crazy night! Our wind-meter hit 68 last night around 2:00AM -- it sounded like freight train going through house.
Here is a view from our deck this morning (its hard to tell,...
