I don't know about that, but I was sailing at coyote from 3:00 until
6:00. At ~4:40PM, it turned off, then turned back on at 5PM big time. I
think the gusts were hitting 40 Knots. And when it turned on, it did it
in a big hurry. I rigged a 4.0 and went out again. I was still kind of
over powered part of the time.

It was an epic day at coyote...
