Sailing Tomales in 40-50 is nuts. The spray off the swell hitting you is like thousands of BB's pelting you as you hang on for dear life and try not to get airborn.

this is a video from last year at Tomales, about the same time in April, I've never been that overpowered in my life. Kevin overpowered on a 3.5.
