DIDN'T EXPECT MUCH AND SURE ENOUGH, IT BARELY WORKED AND ONLY FOR A SHORT TIME.
LEFT HOUSE AS SHOWER CLOUD MOVED IN WITH SOME WIND, HAD RAINED ON HIGHWAY PART OUT BUT NOTHING AT BIB. JUST MISSED THE PEAK WIND OF 27 AND IT DROPPED TO 10-20.
TACKED PAST NORTH POINT AND ACROSS BOAT RAMP CHANNEL TO SPOIL ISLAND, GUST WERE STILL LIGHT BUT PLANABLE, NO POWERED JIBES. SAME THING GOING BACK TO LAUNCH BUT IT WAS OK FOR A FEW FAST TACKS. PLANING ABOUT 60% THAT WAS IT. LATER ANOTHER SHOWER CLOUD APPROACHED, WIND SHIFTED SE AND MADE A ROUND TRIP TO ISLAND #1, OK PLANING ALL THE WAY OUT AND SLOGING MOST OT THE WAY BACK.
LOOKS LIKE A REAL SKUNK FOR SEPTEMBER WITH ONLY ABOUT 3 HOURS SAILING. WHATEVER AS LONG AS THE HURRICANES STAY AWAY.
