Lots of people sailed Waddell yesterday. There were virtually no waves, but
the wind was fantastic. I was fully powered to ocassionally overpowered on
4.5 (I am 175lbs). BTW, the pager is underreporting: 19 mph is not 4.5

Speaking of waves, it was a bit odd. There were no crashing waves near the
shore but some 100m away there were pretty good swells, I'd say, head-high.
For some reason, those swells manage to dissipate by the time they near the
shoreline.
