John, the reason and the purpose of this thread is to INFORM other sailors of the wind conditions of the previous session.
You don't inform anything by leaving out the LOCATION you windsurfed at! |

Great wind at the Delta this morning. Launched at 8:00am, slack, shot up to marker 10 and had fun on the rollers, good port jumps. 4.7 80Ltr 165Lbs. Sailed till around 9:30 flooding but very worthwhile. Might go back this afternoon if the wind holds. GO GIANTS!!!

Had a pleasant hour sunset session on 5.3/102 at low tide at Embassy. Should have rigged the 6.0, but the wind looked really good, when I was rigging. Checked out the strange looking rig anchored off of 28R. Anybody knows what it's for? Planes did their best to give me occasional bursts. Didn't leave the pumping muscles unexercised. |

Should we give up on this thread?
Sailed 7 meters or smaller since Wed, with Sat being a nice 6.5 and 100 liter cruising day at Berkeley. Very few sailors out. The season is effectively over for this year, I guess. |

Sailed a Angulo Gu'd 10' 10" with an Ezzy 7.0. With 1 knot of wind I was having to concentrate to not end up downwind of the launch. When 3 knots of wind came up, I could go to windward. And did so. Had the tri fin set up. No daggerboard on this board. Never got in the footstraps. Oh that's right....there aren't any. Realized that when trying to launch through the shore pound. Uh oh. There is nothing to grab onto.
When I was leaving, one of the Rangers stopped his truck and rolled down his window as I did mine. He said, "The seasons over, bro."
I said, "No it's not. I am stretching it out!"
Looking at the wind graphs later in the evening, I see that I should of headed up the coast.

Another sunset session at Embassy. This time 6.0/102L. Had to pump much less than yesterday. Messy exit through the mud after fin first through the shallows, as the Oyster Bar decided to show up as well. At least there is a hose. |

Indeed, 'twas nice up there. Head high, planning on 5.2 w/ 84 liters - no problem.
The "season" is never over, it just changes. |

The parking lot was empty, but all the usual suspects (except for Fred!) were still there - enjoying the gusty 5.2 to 5.7 wind.
