Yeeha!
Sailed Sherman Island Thurs evening on a medium flood, starting with 4.7
(180 lbs, 9' board), down to 4.2 for a bit, after which most of us gave up as
the wind built to 3.5 and beyond... unbelievable! I let go of my rig in a fall
and the WIND blew it 30 yds upriver! On the lee side of the levee, the WIND
was picking up rigged sails and blowing them 50yds out into the weeds.
