Did the new thrusters finally arrive?

Unimog Bob 11-15-2007 08:30 AM

By the way I'd like to ride SSW Fri AM but the tide is high around 5:00 and not low until 11:30. Pump in the parking lot and wade to the bar to rig??

inferno 11-15-2007 08:36 AM

with the strong N wind all night, it should be do-able by 7:30... i would think atleast, bigR is the expert..

BigR 11-15-2007 08:37 AM

We'll be there @ SSW early fri.,

I think the tide will be low and going lower,

But you are right, the bar to the right is where you rig and launch from during high tide

Don't forget your drysuit, it'll be nippy , air in the 50's/ maybe even high 40's/ but at least we should get wind before it dies at 10am and warms up to the 70's :o

Bob,

I was thinking the same thing about the tide. Low tide isn't until fairly late, by DP standards.

So, who is going out tomorrow am?
I am seeing different forecast temps. Is it going to be 49 or 58?
Big difference.

I'm heading to sunset mañana, before noon. That's about as a.m. as I get...

54 according to the sensor, right in between.

its pretty nuked out now ( 30-33 @ 5deg N ) but it should hold together at least above 20 till B4 noon.

Can't sleep, wind keeps waking me up.
I thought it was Major walking into the walls (went blind), but it's tree limbs and stuff landing on the roof.
I walked outside. It gusted to 40 I would guess, right in the front yard.

i might head out for a quick DP ride, but only if its still enough for my 8m Ckite..... and has enough east for N SW....
