Santa Came Late

Woah!!! I thought, after seeing this forecast yesterday morning:


In my mind, I left work a little early, the West wind slowly switched SouthWest and I rolled up to Surfside to find perfectly groomed head high waves and side off wind. Unfortunately, as with most fantasies, the reality was somewhat different. The head high waves were ankle high at best and the wind was cranking offshore. Disaster!!!

With an hour of daylight left I decided to check out xmas bay. And what a gift!!

Low expectations, super flat water, 30 mph winds, 4.4 and 84L twin = OVERPOWERED FUN!!!


I had a blast sailing until the sun went down. Thanks to Gary Cobbs and co. for hanging around and the pic above (off facebook). Merry xmas!
