Arrived with GregCan, SAJohn and TnT just before 10am coming from Willows short session but too much crap in the water to make it fun so decided to try Caddy Bay. Took board out of the ManVan and remembered that I had forgotten my harness at Willows. Duh! Ripped back to Willows and grabbed harness and headed back to Caddy Bay, A couple more Doods had shown up and I lost my Rockstar parking (Thanks H-Rock!)..hahaha!! I headed out at 10:30am and it was reasonable but very gusty and lots of sticks etc off of RVYC where Fray-Fray was launching from. Strong winds on RVYC side and holey/gusty on East side of the bay. There must have been maybe 7 Wings out as they seemed to be everywhere when I was turning. I was 2nd to come in, after just over an hour which was enough as it was a lot of work in the very strong winds and holes, having to pump one minute and then waaaaay over powered the next. Coast Guard boat hanging out just of RVYC which I thought would be cool to foil in underneath but crashed in the wind shadow of it. hahaha! Me=idiot! Pretty great session, getting 'the sandwich' from TnT, thanks Dood!!! So great to have a cup of hot tea and a sandwich after a hard session. Love it!! If I'm going to continue Wind Foiling in strong winds I'm going to have to get a 3m sail. We'll see. Arrived home and it started pouring, good timing....although it was almost too early to crack open a Corona, almost.
BOBSON OUT!!
