8-13-20, Sulphur, 4.8-6.0/86L
Posted: Fri Aug 14, 2020 11:56 amMore wind than yesterday but still very gusty, up and down, and switching direction on a regular basis. The wind swinging from SW to NW resulted in a lot of chop. Duane Bush, Tim, Josh, George and Stone showed up. Everyone started on 5.6-6.0. I found the 112 to be too much for the chop and went to a little 86L race board which tamed the gusts and helped with the chop. By 4:00 everyone but me got wise to the increasing conditions and switched to 4.8-5.2 sails. We all went retro with Duane and Josh leaving the foils in the vehicles. 2 retro kiters were sailing from the north shore. Nice day to be out blasting around in 80 degree temps and tolerable water temp.
