It's pretty beat up by now, had some stitching repaired at big winds a couple times, the monofilm is pretty opaque, but it's still a great sail and I'm hanging on to it a little longer.

I'm kind of thinking along the same lines: my brother lives in Tualatin and we go up several times a year. The prospect of my wife and I both working indefinitely while we have kids is unappealling (I ... |

I'm heading there this weekend with the family. Someone mentioned it's worth sailing when the conditions are right. Is it's worth bringing a board and couple sails just in case?
That is, are we ta ... |
