Heading north, with stop at Stevenson. Will have gear and time in both Tacoma and Pt. Townsend. Familiar with both locales, but long before my windsurfing days. I know the Narrows Bridge blew down in 1940, but other than that don't recall much wind? Thanks, David

OK, thanks. I even know how to pronounce Sequim from the Good Old Days!

Purdy can be good in fall/winter/spring after the passage of stronger cold fronts. It doesn't work during summer. See the response to your post on NW Windtalk for recommendations during summer wind patterns, which are different.

North Beach in Pt. Townsend gets good afternoon wind. Never sailed there but locals told me about it when I looked property nearby once.

These forecasts may help

Thanks for local advice. Will check out both Purdy Spit and Pt. Townsend North Beach spots since I'm in the area. Recognize timing probably wrong for winds. Cheers, David
