Took the little guy over to the hook to sail a bit, but the water is still just too cold. Since I already had my wetsuit on afterwards, headed over to the Hatchery since it looked windy. L said it had just died down, but then it ramped up a bit, so I rigged. It actually continued doing that the rest of the afternoon resulting in some good times sailing powered up in the swell as well as bad times struggling to shlog past the gill nets.
