def would have been worth the drive.
we had nice weather in NE, just not "usable" for much.
Same set up happened a couple of years ago when a High parked over us, and gave you the pump.

Yea, we had only one visitor who was there to catch it all. Ralph from inland NC!
He was there for BIG Lighthouse Thursday, Super Clean Billy Mitchell Fri, and True Side-Off South End Ocracoke + sunset Lighthouse sesh on Sat.
Truly, Ralph has the epic Hatteras wavesailing adventure!
Bonus too is that he was here to catch a killer lineup a few weeks back too!

7 or 8 of us showed up for cloudy skies, mushy waist-high waves and 16-17mph dead on-shore wind up in Nahant. With sailable SUPs and 5.3-ish sails, it was more fun than it had any right to be. Of course, with the wind starvation we're all suffering from, any sort of bones and table scraps are tasty.
I have to say, my new Fanatic 9'2" Pro Wave was simply awesome. Two big thumbs up for that board.

But then again, there is tommorow....we might have broken the pattern, and with the swell direction, Nahant could work for the northern tribe.
We will have to rally the Abiders which have become somewhat scattered during the doldrums. The set up on Cape holds promise

I am out. Stuck in Falmouth all day!
SUPing was good this am. Little bumpy but at least had some size. The Carpet Pisser got some good last rides before he headed North.

OBX was epic, we stayed soundside, but the Purple One landed his first Flaka. On Fathers Day no less!
