Hi everyone...
Tomorrow, Friday, might be N winds, maybe NNE.
I"m heading down to Hayward in the morning, maybe 10, and then free to look for wind.
How does Coyote do on a N wind that is mostly centered in the EastBay hills?
Would take a drive over the SanMateoBridge, so would like to know some of your experiences on a due N wind day. |

True north is directly onshore at Coyote. Always looks windier from the launch. Rig a size to size-and-a-half bigger. Easier on an ebb. Doable but not a favored direction. _________________ mo |

Embassy is better than Coyote on a North, but the climb down and up the riprap is a bitch. Oyster is quite good once you sail past the pier but the best launch (my secret) is at the tip of Genentech Point |

Thanks guys!
Sounda more adventure than this old man wants to daal with.
Big chop and onshore wind sounds almost like Crissy on a N, something I hate even more than Crissy on a South rainstorm.
I guess a true N peaks around noon, so I won't be free until a bit after...
Oh well, Alameda is too gusty and side off, so back to Berkelely for this old fart. |
