Come to San Francisco, banner spring winds. 30-40 mph 7 of 10 days. All day.

Big fish, cold water, bring a wetsuit and wood for a fire.

There are more things to do here than one month will cover.

Yes, the trade winds have been absent like the rain in California.

However, the weather has been absolutely gorgeous, and there's been incredible surf since October and it's still going.

So learn to:
1. Surf
2. SUP Waves
3. SUP Downwind
4. Prone paddle Downwind
5. Road bike
6. Mountain bike

And maybe kite for the lighter winds.

Maui is like San Francisco in that there's always more to do that you'll ever have time for.

Aloha,

Justin

Wow, your Sugarranch looks incredible.
I used to stay at Rich Whidden's beach rental just up the road from Paia, past the Buddest Cemetery, and launched from there to sail Mama's and back.

Don't blame you. Traffic has been insane! No idea where all these people are coming from. Stabbings, shootings. Weird vibe the past couple of weeks.
