Alton and I are thinking of going to Columbia Beach tomorrow, anyone else interested?
I think we will take the 7:45 ferry from Tsawwassen if the forecast holds and it's blowing in the morning.

I'll pre-load tonight and make a decision in the morning (~6:30 am) and will aim for the 8:30 Horseshoe Bay to Duke Point sailing if I go (only trick is if it's firing at dawn, it might be rough sailing). ;)

Alton has convinced me to catch the 5:15 from Tsawwassen. :shock:
He's killing me, but probably for the best. Hate to get over there and miss it.

Hi Guys,

I'd love to join you but have to be back in Kamloops by 7pm tomorrow night. I'm leaving Langley, been at a friends visiting, at 5am for a dawn patrol SE session at Ebey.

The forecast has been okay for the past four days so we'll see. I would highly recommend you stay away from Whidbey.................Dave :D Have fun at Columbia, there is no chance of DTL conditions on a SE at Whidbey.

Cheers,

Chris

I would say that if you are coming, come early. It never lasts as long as EC says it is going to and both models are saying early, so far.....Bring yur mitts

Wish I could join you guys but cant make it tomorrow, will probably be sailing your scraps at BBay in the morning. My friend Chris may be sailing at Columbia tomorrow and he has a 70l board and bag of mine. If any of you guys can bring it back I would buy you a case of your favourite beverages and wax your car for the rest of your life.

Is that "Chris-and-Janet" Chris? I may have met him first at Nicola Lake then last year at Columbia Beach.

Michael and I will check if there's room left in his van (carpooling). Last time we carpooled to Whidbey it was pretty tight.

On the 5:15 ferry. Such an ungodly hour for dawn patrol
