Bruce, Gary, and I went to Double Bluff on Monday. We sailed from about 10:00 to 1:00. Sail sizes ranged from 4.5m2 to 5.0m2. Cold and gusty, but really nice...
So far it has been a really good year for us in LB. The day after I arrived I sailed 4.8. Been four days on a 5.2 and two days on a 5.7, then another 4.8...
Hey Steve, Get your butt back home. We got a 787 to get out....<grin> Wish I were down there sailing with y'all. Are you going to stop by Concepcion on the...

2005 Sailworks 5.4 Revo, A+ shape, used only a handful of times.Red in color. Bought a Hucker so this overlaps too much. New 2006 is $581. My 2005 for $375. ...
Good thing the 787 is carbon and titanium, not aluminum. I'll be back in time to feel the strain of getting that puppy out the door, Rick. Update on...
Any verification on that dorsal fin? I would have thought the southern Sea of Cortez would have been a bit warm for those critters. Saw a fisherman pulling...
I sailed right over a whole herd of mantas once down at Los Barriles a few years ago. It was kindof a shock, but they were a few feet down and just cruising...

Oh man. 2 days from LB to San Diego is really pushing it. I've done that myself. Long hard days. --Rick ... From: "barrilles" <sjmason@...> Good thing...

Mike, You might want to hang on to some of your true wave sails because you may not want to take your Huckers or Retros into the surf on the coast because the...
I am still kicking myself for not taking a sick day Tuesday. The day before forecasts did not even come close to what happened out there. It looked like some...
Glenn, I didn't sail Tuesday, but did sail Monday at East Beach on Marrowstone. Slightly underpowered on a 4.2 John Bucholz picked the correct size for the...
Monday was a stunner, expected to kite in the afternoon but it fired up early and way past the forecast, Gene and I sailed 11a-2p at Post Pt on a flattened...
Yep. I went to Golden Gardens from 8 to 9 in the morning. West Point did read slightly over 40 mph during this time (gusting almost 50mph), the ferry sensors...
520 bridge is already blowing 24G29 at 8:30am and it is expected to get stronger by afternoon. I am thinking about going to Maggie since the forecast is...
I went to RB today and rigged my 4.2m, it was just great till the gusts started going over 40! Then it was quite a bit of work just to keep it all together on...
I was driving up I-5 around noon today thinking about those big swells that would be at RB. I have been suffering from a cold or flew the last few days so I...
Bruce, about a half dozen other hardy souls, and I sailed at Magnusen today. A really nice session with warm temps and nice swells. Bruce - mostly 4.0m2 - Me...
Solid wind, no rain, "warm" air (48), cold water. Arrived around 9 am. Sailed 4.8 (178 lbs). Had to add a bunch of downhaul/outhaul after a bit and then...
Lots of big smoothies and some good steep ones too for jumping. I got there about noon and it was good 4.2m Hucker conditions until about 3pm. Corrie had the...
Thought arriving at 2:30 Sunday might be too late with a forecast of winds backing off in PM. NOT. Man, gotta think it blew 20 to 25 there today from dawn to...
I'm headed to Maui end of Feb-begining of Mar- need a cool place to stay(location on beach more important then amenities) a fun place to sail (I can land half...
Joe - I favor the north side of Maui, in the Paia area. It is not as sunny as Kihei (which is where a lot of people stay) but is closer to Kanaha and Sprecks....
I had a nice 2-hr session at Newcastle yesterday also, 12:30pm - 2:30pm. Used my 91L JP + 5.3m2. Could have been on 4.7m2 most of the time. Wind was ...
I second the Paia Fish Market. Between that and the little grocery store a couple blocks up the street to the south (toward the mountain), you can stay nicely...

Whatever happened to the Broughton Landing folks cooperating with the CGWA and stating that they wouldn't impact hatchery sailing. In fact, I recall they said...
I think that more research may be needed and questions asked. I clipped this from their proposal I found on their website. "The Broughton Landing proposal will...
I think the folks in opposition to this development may be at risk of losing credibility because of some of the rather hysterical statements I've read. Too bad...
