My meter was showing 17-23 when I got there so rigged the 5.2 and little race board and went flying. Although the wind meter had said perfect 5.2 the east side was at least 4.7. Wild screaming reaches ending way too soon against what seems like a huge wall 1st thing in the morning. By the 2nd sesh I had adjusted to the short reach and was having a lot more fun. Josh had shown up by then and went out on his 4.9. We were both barely hanging on by then. Mostly sunny which was surprising considering the rain/cloud predictions. It did spit at us a couple of times but never looked threatening. Nice morning.

It was much windier than we thought.
I rigged a 4.8m but I should have re-rigged to 4.4m.
The 4.8 worked well in the lulls.

The reach is really short.
I think there are about 5 more vertical feet of water left before it bottoms out.

Wednesday looks promising.
