Tried porteau Cove this am from 6:30-7:30 ish. Fairly long paddle to wind line and was about to paddle back when a good gust came and I got up to speed on a 5m wing. Plenty of wind where the water was more silty through to all the way across, but current going south and a wind switch to more easterly had me pointing upwind the whole session. Came in on a nice puff plus some swell for a short paddle to the campground for a mellow walk with the geese back to the parking lot. Thought the currents would be mellow or even helpful going north with a high tide around 8, but maybe there's a surface current effect from the wind there?
