It continues, amazing, even tonight! The wind was side off and was to shift sideshore around midnight. Come quiting time it was already close to side shore so I headed down and sure enough it was already bent parallel to shore at the coast. Blowing strong too. Did some wind checks and figured the 13 m would cover it. Rigged it as small as I could by trimming. It was manageable but had me asking myself why bother, smarter to rig smaller? Went in and rigged a bit too small with a 7 m. I could lock it in at times particularly offshore. It is amazing how differently a 7 m flies compared to a 13 m! A really fine ground swell was setting up about 250 ft. off the beach in otherwise fairly calm water. More wind in the forecast tomorrow. Who got some water time today?
