GREAT DAY, PURE SUN, WARM AIR/WATER AND GREAT WIND ALL AFTERNOON. LOTS OF VISITORS, MICK, BILL AND THE REGULAR CANADIAN AND IOWA CONTINGENT. FIRST GOOD DAY IN FEBRUARY FOR ME, ALMOST A '9' BUT ... JUST HAD ONE EXTRA LONG NON-STOP SESSION, 90% PLANING TIME AND STAY DRY TIME.

A COUPLE OF GPS RESULTS FOR TODAY....ROGER ON 5.5 AVG 10MPH OVER 60 MILES WITH 29+ PEAK SPEED AND TOM ON 4.7 AVG ?? OVER 17 MILES WITH 30+ PEAK SPEED.


TACK FOR ME WAS TO ISLAND #1, WITH VERY LOW (1.6')WATER WAS HESITANT TO GET CLOSE TO THE ISLAND OR CROSS THE IWC. LOTS OF POWERED RUNS GOING OUT AND GENERALLY INSIDE UNLESS TRYING TO RUN CLOSE TO THE SANDBAR. JUST A BIT HOLY ALONG THE SANDBAR BUT ALWAYS A GUST FOR GREAT POWERED JIBES. DID SEVERAL DUCK AND A COUPLE OF STEP JIBES AND SOME NICE PLANING EXITS. DID MISS A COUPLE OF JIBES AND FAST TACKS BUT FELT GREAT THE ENTIRE TIME, NEVER HAVING TO TWEAK ANYTHING WITH THE SAIL RIGGED AT MEDIUM.
