I sailed the early shift at Marrowstone-Pt. Flagler this Sunday morning. 3.7/ 90L from 9 to 11, mostly rugged terrain with some nice shoulder-high swells....
Shaping up to be one of the choice Fall days it appears. Quite mild temps, 20 to 30+ winds. Hoping to time it right, likely arriving 11:45 for long lunch...
It was time to rinse off the salt. 92L,5.2 switched to the 77L at 10. Sailed up to maggies where the wind was more filled in. A couple others out. Toasty warm....
Debated to rig a 5.8 or 6.6 and rigged the 6.6. Wrong, but stayed with it the whole time. A 5.2 to 5.4 probably would have been the right call beginning about...

Very amusin, you sound like you share the same sense of humour as Jimmy Coxes mate Clyde (from the stories I've heard anyway)......
Weird swirling wind, didn't chance any crossings. 5.2 92L, and a 110L. Probably only planed about 1/2 the time. Went from catching air on some nice ramps to...
I just ordered one new Northwave ZX 10, their latest design. Northwave offers discounts based on the number of sails ordered, and they allow customers to...
I have a pair of Men's size L (they fit a bit smaller) Dakine full finger sailing gloves. Brand new, attached to the cardboard thingy, with price on it ($29?...
4.2 77L, Good until 3:30 when the rain came in and with it really unreliable wind. The wind in the middle was probably 3.5 with 4-5 ft breakers. Just me and...
Phillip - curious about the surfing Puget Sound part. Can Edmonds get anything remotely resembling a surfable wave? I assume you mean prone type surfing....
Don - looks like we need to start taking our SUP gear along for novelty when we visit Edmonds....... Thanks for the response Phillip B ... From: srch4wind...
I imagine there's down-the-line, surf-able waves in numerous spots in the sound under the right conditions. For instance, I have body boarded the point at...
Sailed Maggie from about 3pm to dark on a 5.0 When I got there it looked like it was getting lighter,and Brent was packing his 5.2, so I went with 90l. board....
Hi all, See http://paddlesurfnorthwest.blogspot.com for some cool GoPro vids/pics of paddle surfing real waves in Puget Sound,generally at points off Whidbey...
I've created a new yahoo group for SUP. Not so much to prevent SUP spam on nw-windtalk, but to provide access for non-windsurfing SUPpers. Group home page:...
Thanks for the insites. We have had a few semi wave sailable days at GG on low tide as you mention. This weekend was the first time we have been to Edmunds...

Started with a 6.2 92 L, ended with a 4.2, 77L. It was still coming up when I left. Snapped a harness line halfway across. It was a lot of work coming back in....
Got an hour of massively OPd 6.7m/101L/34 where a 4.7m would have been more appropriate, except for the fact the 6.7m was already rigged and darkness was fast...
High tide and south wind at DesMoines Sunday morning and I don't like that combination there so I'm thinking about some 9AM sailin at NewCastle. The saturday...
John, are you sailing with gloves/mitts? The air is supposedly 42F at 9am and gets to 46F by 1pm. Temperatures below 50 are outside of my comfort zone, but 46...
