Probably could have scored a 4.7/small board session at Third today, but got lazy and sailed Palo Alto instead. The dock is only a 10-15 minute drive from my house. Same set up as yesterday at the Stick..fat board and a 7.3 in 12 mph wind which ramped up to 17 during my hour and half session. Did a dozen runs to the Newark shore..jibes getting better on the big ass board. No one else in the water except for one kayaker.

I don' think you can get a model x for less than 120k
then you can't strap anything to the roof because of the
falcon doors. Not nocking Telsa but a model S you could
rack stuff.

Yea the Model S seems to be set up better for WSing. Front seat reclines enough to carry 2 boards inside and you also can put racks on the roof. But even the S, you'll want the extra features like extra capacity battery, the giant computer screen and maybe ludicrous mode putting it well over $85k.
Nice setup Bert, you can truly sail in any conditions probably all winter too!

15 sails? Do you have a lot of duplicates? I've got 11 in the van, but I've got to admit to having a least 2-3 old dogs I've been too lazy to remove.

No old dogs in my arsenal. Sails range from 3.3 to 9.5 m2 in increments and with the exception of the 3.3 Combat wave, I've used all my sails this year as I sail on average 150 days/year in all conditions since my retirement 5 yrs. ago. I do have 2 duplicates in the 5.0 size, a 2014 Retro and a 2016 North Sails Volt (an awesome sail). But you're right..15 sails does sound like overkill.
