064 - Had better expectations than the wind provided with weak gusts, big holes and sorta shifty.  Had to stay way out to get anything consistent so tacked upwind to SI#2 and across the IWC at the high markers, good swell in the IWC but light wind and it was better on the KRS side.  Later went back to launch and across at SI#1 to the KRS for a few round trips.  Now it was more consistent and a little stronger on the KRS side.  Made a couple more runs across at the high marker south of SI#2 to below the South Cabins. Overall the outside was fairly steady but still weak and the inside had too many holes to do much without bigger stuff.
