Sunday I sailed the Sanibel causeway. I arrived at 9:00 and the wind was filling in. Rigged an 8.5 made several runs and was over powered. Rigged a 7.0 made a few more runs and then had to rig a 5.5 and stayed out over an hour. When the wind started to back off I re-rigged the 7.0. Was running from the causeway to just short of Pine Island logged, 48 miles on the gps. Chop wasn't bad because of the various spoil islands in San Carlos Bay. I left around 2:30 and was amazed at all the kite boarders and windsurfers on the island at the foot of the high bridge.
