| Details | The chop carnage on the RB webcam terrified me so I??headed to Willows. I noted Bobson doing mach chicken runs much further out. Despite being off foil for more than a week, the greatness of the winds let me get some sweet long runs. 45min on foil over a 72min??total water time - 62% on foil! Pretty good for a newb. 7/10 conditions for me. 12-25kt W.??The best winds were at MTI level, but I was leery of going out that far with the strong offshore winds. I was??on Cab6 and was??mostly overpowered, but I was used to that.??One crash snapped my GoPro mount and I considered switching to Cab5 while I was ashore fixing the mount, but the winds seemed to ease off a bit so??I stayed with the??6m. I played between the marina and the Teahouse, there was plenty of wind there. Plenty of gusts and holes, but that just makes you a better foiler. I used my cel??for GPS tracking, but the max stats seem suspect. It felt more like 15kts max. Tuesday morning looks good..... [from Sailing Log on Sunday February 19, 2023] |
