Woke up, had coffee and Tweezer cakes and headed to Willows. Arrived at 8:15am to 1 Wing going out at Willows and 1 out at CP. Was thinking I might see Mr. B at Willows this morning as we haven't seen him for awhile but he did not arrive, just wishful thinking I guess. Oh Well, maybe next time. Wind was solid 10-15kts with lots of caps East of CP. As I rigged up, Paul and MtnarG showed up. I rigged the 6.0m Flyer that was fairly flat to be sure and headed out and got a solid hour in including heading all the way up to Jemmy Jones and saw a sailboat heading out of Caddy Bay so did a loop around them to say HI! Got back into the bay and it was getting lighter so decided to head in. Drunken Monkey and some others were on the water and Tweezy-Tweez was getting in his suit. More gusts were incoming so had a drink of coffee and headed back out with a fatter 6.0m. and started foiling 10 ft from the beach as I caught a sweet gust right away. Got another 30 mins in but wind was getting weird coming more SW off of MTI and all of a sudden all the Wings were on the beach so I foiled back to MTI and then schlogged in to the beach as the wind died. Tuna was rigged and ready to go but unfortunately no wind, Morley was hoping for some wind and Danno showed but I'm thinking a little late for the party. As I derigged and drove away it looked like it was picking up so I'm hoping they got some. Almost got 40kms but also wiped out twice which really sucks!! >>DISLIKE<<. Headed home and found wife had bought some bacon so cooked up some bacon to have with my Caesar and watch some football.
