causeway was pretty insane. Got out there at about 3:00pm....and just watched one guy on his 7m waroo, while I contemplated on-shore whether or not launching my 9m waroo would be such a good idea. I declined. There were some pretty insane gusts...one of them actually knocked me back a few steps and almost ripped out a couple of small street signs. Ikite showed SW at 30 gusting to 40 from 2pm-4pm. I noticed the wind picking up heavily at the causeway from about 3-4:15pm and helped the 7m guy call it quits....needless to say, he was litt as well. I wish I would have studied later in the day and caught the wind when it was a bit more reasonable. There's always tomorrow morning....
