I sailed yesterday at Stevenson - started out light, rigged 5.7m, then the winds came up. I figured this was good practice to sail overpowered for a while....
I have never done a 2-car down-winder and might be interested in that. Depends on conditions around the gorge that day. Another option is Viento to Event Site....

Big difference from yesterday - lots of parking spots and not many sailors. The forecast must have driven the crowds east - plus being a weekday helps. I was...
TOW = time on the water Today I showed up at the Hatchery around noon. It was blowing 15MPH and everyone was sitting around. I rigged the 120L + 7.2m and I...

When I first started gorge sailing, I always preferred the 5.0/5.5 days to the 'nuker' days. Instead of getting kicked around at the Hatch on the sub-4.0...

I had a great day at the Hatch on Friday. After starting on my 5.7m the wind came up and I was able to rig the 4.5m. So nice to be on the smaller sails. As...
That's a record for me. Had to take a day off to rest up. Was kind of gusty at Rowena but decent 5.0m conditions nonetheless. Now that the water level is...
Good winds and lots of company at Stevenson today. I ended up fully wound-up on my 4.5m and 75L board. Sure nice to get the little board dusted off - it...
