This week has provided some pretty good wind. I was only able to get out on Wednesday after work. I rigged an 8.5 on my 118L board with a 48cm pointer fin. I haven't sailed that setup in quite a while and it felt great. I was out for over an hour, boat traffic was light and it was mostly sunny with the wind out of the SE. The wind stayed up and I was well powered. I had a great time.
This has been a tough week at work and a fellow windsurfer, I won't mention his name, kept texting me. Telling me when he was rigging down to a smaller sail. The worst was when he asked what size mast to rig the 5.0 I sold him. You know, generally implying in a subtle way how epic the conditions were. Meanwhile I am working trying to appear that I care about the customers particular dilemma and all the while wishing I was anywhere but there. Sheesh..... Thanks DINO!
This weekend and the following week is looking good. East wind 16-23 and building 20-28 on Thursday.

I'll be sailing and kiting the Fort Pierce South Jetty this weekend if y'all want to come up for some ocean riding!
Just want to make sure you stay well informed. :)
