Arrived at 2:05pm to see RobbieDS and sig nif other doing pushups....ya, I know, weird!! Since Master U-L-R arrived and joined in on the pushups, I figured I would rig up my antiquated sailing device. Ya Baby!! It looked 13-15kts so rigged a fat 4.5m Sailworks Flyer. It might have been a bit small but so much easier than lugging around the 6.0m. So I figured a bit of pumping would be okay. Well, it got a bit lighter after 15 mins so there was a lot of pumpy-pump going on for the first 30 mins. having to look for a gust to be able to make the jibe. Then it picked up a bit and the Twizzler arrived and showed off his Wing skills. Mtnarg and Ruppy-Doo also showed up. So Mtnarg was on his 8.0m (I think) and I was on my 4.5m, a 6.0m would have probably been the right choice today. HA! RobC was out getting some more TOW as well. Apparently TunaCan might have been there as well but I didn't see him. Again, weird!! It was pretty warm and sunny for most of the session. The wind was filled in right to the shore which was nice as the wind started to get lighter and I saw Master U-L-R coming in so I followed him as he is pretty smart about the wind. Pretty great afternoon sesh!!
BOBSON OUT!!
