It looks like Sunday will be the Iceburg day we've all been waiting for. I'll be at Van Pugh.

Almost live up date from Van Pugh at 11:15, brought to you by WindSense Windsurfing, where you can get some killer deals on closeout and 2007 gear -

WINDY, lots of caps, 40 degrees but sunny, 2 sailors rigging, I'll be joining them as soon as I eat some lunch, West with some North. I'd probably rig my 2007 Ezzy 5.2 Wave sail, what a great sail! You can get them at WindSense Windsurfing.

This almost live up date has been brought to you by WindSense Windsurfing, Atlanta's Windsurfing Shop.

Quick update - It was windy and cold, sail sizes mainly 5.5 to 4.7, and some smaller. We had a good turnout, around 8 sailors including some very gutsy advanced-beginners. I sailed my 5.2 but had to use the 104 liter board as it did have some lulls. Temps started at 41 degress around 12:30 and had dropped to around 38 at 4:30. It was fun, but it was cold.

Good day in Augusta. We temps in the mid-50s and LOTS of good wind. It was 5.2 early afternoon and 4.2 late afternoon.

Also, I got to try out my new Ocean Rodeo Pyro drysuit (thanks Emilo for the recommendation). Its way, way more comfortable and more dry than any drysuit I have ever owned (I have had 4 of them). Highly recommended for windsurfing.
