Afternoon - Sitting in the living room in my easy chair after lunch and a couple of beers and my wife says, someone is back out on the water. It was Eastside, back out on the water, and just given'r. It inspried me to go back down for more. Took the 144 and the 9.0. Wet suit was dry by then, so no problem getting it back on. Way to much power for confortable sailing by a couple of sail sizes, could of used a lot smaller and was lucky not to have broken anything, but not slogging anywhere and great for mowing weeds!
Lesson learned again. Don't think the wind is going to dying so the rig will be ok by the time your back on the water. Again, don't be to lazy to rig another sail before going back to the beach when you know the wind is still up.
I think it blew til dark this evening.
Still lots of fun and nice and warm in the shortie.
