Poor JE
I can only apologize. I was banned from the Ocean for over a month.
That has never happened in my life. But I listened to my Doctor. idky
I resolved myself to building a firepit, endless yard work, and a Go-Kart rebuild.
It left you sailing without any form of companionship...alone in a cold dark sea.
PK has been on some kind of worklust for too long now.
And now, as Aloha Friday approaches, it looks like any late action will be too late....so I will take to the water again earlier in the day.. and you will have to find your own way. Low tide promises Dump Trucks at 1:30

Yesterday I sailed with my new BFF's.(outer Cape kiting crew, you do what you have to do)
Sailing from Hardings Beach fully powered on a 4.7m without another Windsurfer to be seen we headed East to the South way in Chatham's South Beach.
Being high tide I was able to sail without any walking right out to the mighty Atlantic.(where the "Finest Hours" took place).
The winter storms have reshaped the inlet into a nice playground with three point breaks and a hero jibe/speed run on the inside. The waves were what PK would call waist high but the little knee slappers were quite fun.
I am sorry you are going to miss Today's day of sailing. Remember it is better to sail when you should sail rather than when you can sail.
Well this might be my last posting on iWindsurf as with my new BFF's it just makes more sense that I post on iKitesurf.
Before I go I will give it one last shot......
Is anyone thinking about sailing today?

Team Old school (aka windsurfers) had a great opening day on Buzzards Bay. Spring has sprung! Let the games begin!

Dear Outcast
I know you were under the weather yesterday and I thought it would make you feel better knowing that your buds represented in your honor.
I hope your green monster leaves your lungs in the near future.
....JE
Just a few pics and vid to make you feel better

Kalmus report --
No heroic loops, but there was a stretch where it was pumping pretty good.
Then, the dreaded isolated thermal decoupling kicked in. I could have got more, but like Drew said, wind, tide, temp, sunshine - the chance was too good to pass up!
