Jerry's jibbing at the causeway

12/22/09

Tuesday proved to be another great day on the water. Wind was out of the east and we sailed from the south side of the east island. I rigged a 7.0 on my 118L board. I was pretty much able to sail the channel south past the spoil island and over to the the House of Refuge. Water was flat, gusts strong and the sun was out; it doesn't get any better than that!

I haven't been on the water in 8 days, but it was worth the wait because today was awesome! Wind and water wasn't too cold and I was on a 6.0 with an 88L board. Jibing was sweet on the west side of the river with flat water and good wind. James was at the causeway and was pretty excited about sailing and Dave from Mich. was there as well. Dave said on Friday he was chipping ice off his roof rack so he could load up his gear! Tomorrow is forecasted to be anaother good day.

Jerry's coming out of a jibe

Sunday was great! I arrived at 11:30 and a lot of sailors were already there. The wind didn't look like much since the causeway (east island s side) was somewhat sheltered from IRP marina but the wind line was saying 26-31 from the east. I rigged a 6.0 on my 88L board and was on it till 3:00. I spent most the time up near the House of Refuge. Great time had by all!
