Wind Journal for Mike Murphy Wednesday June 25, 2003

54th session in 2003 Sailed at BIB Wind from the SE (mph) lulls: 20 average: 23 gusts: 27 Rated a 9 of 10		Board: 268 NAISH ENDURO Sail: 6.0 EZZY INFINITY Fin: 13.5" WEED Suit: NONE Water Temperature: 90 F Air Temperature: 90 F
WOULD HAVE BEEN A 10 TODAY EXCEPT IT TOOK THE 6.0 TO WORK AND ONLY GOT 3 HOURS OF SAILING. THE 5.4 WOULD HAVE WORKED THE MAJORITY OF THE TIME BUT THE 6.0 WAS PROBABLY A BETTER CHOICE. PRETTY CLASSIC BIB, FLAT ALONG THE SANDBAR, PLANING AND POWERED GOING BOTH DIRECTIONS AND ONLY 6-8 SAILORS AT A TIME. SAIL FELT A BIT HEAVY AT FIRST, ADJUSTED HARNESS LINES, DOWNHAUL AND FINALLY OUTHAUL AND IT GOT MUCH BETTER. ABLE TO PLANE THROUGH THE HOLES AND HAD ENOUGH POWER MOST OF THE TIME. MADE MOST JIBES, DUCK JIBES, FAST TACKS IN BOTH DIRECTIONS AND SOME FAIRLY HIGH JUMPS BETWEEN ISLAND #1 & #2. DIDN'T NOTICE MANY JELLYFISH BUT THERE WERE SOME.
