My bet is WR is 8-12 knots max, with low tide at 1. Fun if you have big gear. The incoming tide will make it difficult to stay upwind later in the afternoon. However, if it stays sunny the water will be very warm.

My dad and I are going to go to spanish banks. Maybe a little thermal boost and I can see a wind line in the distance :D

Perfectly powered on my 15M from 12:30 to 3:30. Consistent wind, Sunny & warm! Sailed with Rob, James, Steve, Darren & two of his buddies. Brian was also out, launching & sailing at West Beach. Great day, WR at it's finest (other than fabled SW's). Happy Easter! :mrgreen:

Awsome day at WR. Lit on my 15m and race board. Sailed up wind to west beach. Thanks for the heads up tweegster.
