After watching the wind yesterday jump from 19 to 26 to 22 to 31 and
change from NW to W to NW again, the following question occurs:

Is there a sailing site in the vicinity of SFO that offers excellent
conditions under *both* pure westerly (i.e., 270 degrees) and strong
northwesterly (i.e., 300-310) conditions?

        Oyster?
        Tigers?
        The Stick?

I know from experience suffering there that a place like Coyote
would have been really frustrating under conditions like those I was
seeing yesterday.
