Nice evening SE sesh with Blaine. 6.0 flyer. Starting to figure out a few of the gybes on the wing a good percentage of the time. It helps to gybe in some wind to maintain speed and keep the wing lifting. Nice and warm too.

Mike and Ross showed up about 2PM, but missed the wind.
I wish there had been wind for them, because when it suddenly cut off I got caught out there ... sort of. Struggled to shore, but landed downwind. Couldn’t lift my rig over the rocks without risking dings. I felt like an abandoned puppy trying to figure out the best course of action. Al finally took pity on me, came and helped me boost the rig over the long dock that was stopping me from just trekking up the shore. One of the stranger walks of shame. Hooray for Al, who joins the long line of friends who have helped me out of my screwups. Thanks Al.
Mike did get out - his squiggly line is on Strava for anyone who is interested.

Ted's Report
I had to host a Rotary Zoom meeting at Noon, so didn't get out until after 1:00. It looked really good in the morning, but by the time I got down to the water, it had lightened up some. I went out on my 6.0 flyer and had some good runs, but the wind died after about a half-hour. I came in and sat on my bench watching and trying to decide whether to re-rig to the 7.0, but the wind was pretty well done. A good session, but it would have been better if I could have been out earlier...

| It's much easier to get my rig up the hill with my 4x4 truck! |
When the wind died almost completely, I took out my drone and took some photos of our place...
