About a dozen of us ended up doing downwinders. For St. Pete, I personally thought today was about as good as it gets for a NW coldfront. Solid 20+ and not so gusty.(compared to the 16 to 35 I am used to).
Also, for St. Pete, we had some exceptional waves. Best time I have had in a long time. After lunch a bunch of us rode in front of the 'tow for about an hour and a half
whilst Billy and a bunch of others continued the DW all the way to North Beach. I'd give just about anything to get wind
and waves like that in St.Pete on a regular basis.
Thanks for the loner, Raul.
(trying to secure another 11m tonight).
Thanks for the demo of the Mako, Bayflite.
That thing is unreal in chop/waves. (might have to get one!)
