126 - Figured it would be tough with the Gang of Three Speedos blasting with 7.8+ sails. It actually turned out a nearly solo three hour session.  First run down south to Boom Point with easy planing and mostly medium power.  Spent a couple of hours going BAF between Boom and Lookout Points in nice flatwater with holes but small enough to stay on plane.  Went back to the launch and did the drop-off BAF between Lookout Point and the north end all solo.  The last hour was much less power but mostly planing.  Sailed until Will took over for his solo session.
