Wind Journal for Mike Murphy Friday July 25, 2003

66th session in 2003 Sailed at BIB Wind from the SE (mph) lulls: 17 average: 21 gusts: 25 Rated a 6 of 10		Board: 268 NAISH ENDURO Sail: 5.4 EZZY INFINITY Fin: 13.5" WEED Suit: NONE Water Temperature: 90 F Air Temperature: 90 F
NOT REALLY THERE TODAY, GOOD 15-20 BUT NOT MUCH MORE. DECIDED TO USE 5.4 RATHER THAN 6.0 AND IT WORKED REASONABLY WELL. DON'T THINK LARGER WOULD HAVE MADE THAT MUCH DIFFERENCE. RAN BETWEEN LAUNCH AND UPWIND OF ISLAND #1, ALONG THE SANDBAR WHEN POSSIBLE. NOT TOO DIFFICULT TO STAY UPWIND AT FIRST BUT IT DROPPED ENOUGH LATER MAKING ONLY DOWNWIND WORTH WHILE. HAD SOME GOOD RUNS ALONG THE SANDBAR AT WORLDWINDS AND OUT CLOSER TO ISLAND #2. THE WATER LEVEL IS DOWN FAIRLY LOW AND NO JELLYFISH.
