Got out for about an hour at 7PM at Garry Point Park. Well powered on my 5.3 and 101L to start but it became a handful near the end. Should have rigged the 4.7 but with the high tide and dull light it was hard to tell the water state. The line of dark clouds and large rain drops shortened the session but it was great to get out. Some debris in the water but you could easily avoid it. Did anyone sail at Acadia this evening?

At 6:00 there were around 10 windsurfers and 1 kite at Locarno and Jericho. 10 to 20 knots. Wind was Northerly. Wind gradually lightened. However, wind picked up to over 20 knots after 8:00. Warm enough for my 3mm suit with short sleeves.

Had to wait around until 4:30 for the wind to show up.
