Wind Journal for Mike Murphy Wednesday July 23, 2003

64th session in 2003 Sailed at BIB Wind from the SE (mph) lulls: 17 average: 21 gusts: 26 Rated a 7 of 10		Board: 268 NAISH ENDURO Sail: 6.0 EZZY INFINITY Fin: 13.5" WEED Suit: NONE Water Temperature: 89 F Air Temperature: 90 F
IT BEAT THE MINIMAL FORECAST OF 15, IT STARTED BLOWING FAIRLY EARLY IN THE MORNING, DROPPED A BIT MID-DAY AND PICKED UP AGAIN IN THE LATE AFTERNOON. JUST RUNNING BETWEEN LAUNCH AND ISLAND #1 TODAY, WATER WAS PRETTY FLAT EVERYWHERE, A BIT HOLEY ALONG THE SANDBAR AND FAIRLY CONSISTENT ON THE OUTSIDE. PLANING MAJORITY OF THE TIME BUT NOT REAL FAST. FASTEST RUNS WERE ON THE SANDBAR GOING SOUTH AND AROUND ISLAND #1 WAS GOOD. DID TWO SHORT SESSIONS, NOTHING MUCH SPECIAL JUST CRUISING BACK AND FORTH AND TRYING TO AVOID OVERHEATING. WORTHWHILE AFTERNOON, NICE FINAL SESSION WITH JUST DON AND IKE ON THE WATER.
