Congrats Team BWD Randy, Nanmoo, and Winddoctor. Looks like Kus got there just in time for the keg and some swag. Good placing for Windoctor. Any better and they would bounce him up to expert. Next fund raiser is to buy him a water proof watch with an alarm. Great photos as usual 4J.

It's because we were such light weights and there were 3 kegs of Hood River Full Sail beer left.... 8)

Yep, we are getting extraordinarily lucky this year....again :roll: :D Too bad u were unable to attend the Boardmeetings, hope to sail with you again real soon. I trust your studies are going well, lots of time to cash in for those waves after that's done, eh? Cheers. 8)

Not sure if you read this before sailing the South Jetty in next to no wind the other day Kus,

"Gold Beach South Jetty
As a thermal low first starts to creep in to the south coast this spot can sometimes be sailable. It is also a place to get a morning session on the south Coast.... This place is also known to be sharky during the salmon runs the local fishermen say there is a local great white shark here."
Don't forget to bring a towel!

Local lore doesn't impress me, the thigh brush the other day did tho :shock: today I at least had some wind so not as much of an issue :twisted: except I suppose for those poseidon attacks :roll: Lotsa seals around in the river and beach too, odds reduction :wink:
