Wind Journal for Mike Murphy Wednesday March 10, 2004

13th session in 2004 Sailed at BIB Wind from the SE (mph) lulls: 15 average: 18 gusts: 22 Rated a 7 of 10		Board: 268 NAISH ENDURO Sail: 6.0 EZZY INFINITY Fin: 13.5" WEED Suit: LONG JOHN Water Temperature: 71 F Air Temperature: 70 F
SORTA A SURPRISE TODAY, WIND NOT THAT GREAT BUT WARM SPRING CONDITIONS INCLUDING LOTS OF NEW ARRIVALS. RUMOR THAT BIG RIG BOB EDGED OUT DON KRIER RECENTLY BUT DON PREVAILED TODAY. TACK WAS FROM LAUNCH TO BETWEEN ISLANDS #1 & @2. WIND GENERALLY MUCH BETTER ON THE OUTSIDE, JUST TOO HOLEY INSIDE. DID MANAGE A COUPLE OF POWERED AND A DUCK JIBE ALL THE WAY DOWN BY THE BOAT LAUNCH END. ALSO A FEW FAST TACKS, THE INSIDE WERE NOT POWERED BUT THE OUTSIDE WERE GOOD ONES. ALTHOUGH RARELY FULLY POWERED, WAS ABLE TO PLANE 70% ON THE OUTSIDE AND HARDLY EVER ON THE INSIDE.
