I'm not certain I can go due to kid care circumstances but I may have a later window starting June 29th to July 6th.

Forecast looking great for next week's IWT event. Anyone want to push their plans forward for a sure thing?

Looks like D2 will just be D1 for this year. I'm still planning to get down for the last week of June.

Dana Miller with the May update
https://internationalwindsurfingtour.co ... bash-2017/
"It’s been a rather windy Spring already and we’ve had some swell running pretty much the whole time. There were fourteen sailable days in April and twelve already in May. The ocean temp has been running in the low fifties until very recently. Sail sizes are all over the place. I’ve been riding everything from 3.5 to 5.7 in the last couple months. But mostly 5.0 and 4.0. There’s a lot of sand at the Rock and I’m predicting a good year for that spot. A lot of people have been asking me about the contest and stoke seems to prevail.
But in the way of full disclosure, it’s not quite all sweetness and light out here. The ocean temps just dropped into the forties with that last blow. The red tide is in large again. The winds, while plentiful, have been streaky and weird for the most part. A bit challenging for sure. Chubbs just broke a mast the day before at the Rock and had a rough time getting back in as the current was sweeping him most the way to the river mouth. But other than all that, Pistol has been on fire and Spring is the new Summer. So be ready for heavy duty.
While it’ll probably warm right back up in time for the event, you still might want to bring some extra rubba. Booties might be a good idea too. And don’t forget the floaty board just in case it’s light on the inside..."

Nooooo DQ...the only thing that really matters is if the SUPER BURRITO place is still open. Thant would be a game changer for me if its closed!
Well I've broken out the vinegar, freed the board from a year in prison it must be time for the yearly windsurfing extravaganza even though it looks like we are down a Dave. I'm sure a extra Dave will show up...in a pinch my middle name is Dave if we need another for the official 2017 log.
Weather dependent Ill head down June 23-26ish with a mandatory refresher skills session in Hood R then coast bound. Have to be back at work for July 6.

Farewell DQ in Gold Beach, we will miss you.

Curry County Pilot article (2016 Sept 16) -
With revenues doubled, sounds like there is a business opportunity in the Beach of Gold for a independent operator. "Dairy Moo" maybe?

Just read this....I have already sent my manager a letter of resignation. My new career will start as soon as I can get down there.
