Wind Journal for Richie
Sunday May 14, 2006, 6:00p-6:45p

15th session in 2006
Sailed at Baffin
Wind from the SE (mph)
        lulls: 15
        average: 24
        gusts: 30
Rated a 4 of 10

Board: Thommen X85
Sail: Ezzy 4.7
Fin: MFC OS 9
Suit: Shorts

Extremely chalengeing day the wind varied from 15-30 and was ESE which set up two directions of chop which intersected each other in a cross hatch pattern. Started on a 5.2 and rigged down to a 4.7. Still overpowered in the gusts and slogging in the lulls. The only cool thing was sometimes the two different directions of chop would form a peaked V, twice as high as the individual height. Kinda like the wake boarders do with two boats.

If today was your first day on Baffin you'd probably never come back.
