I am going to try N Skyway. If there is too much north, I might turn around and hit S Skyway. I think low tide is about 5:30 a.m., so S Skyway should be an option this morning. I am really hoping for NE wind, though.

What was the real wind speed?
Sensor said 22, I am guessing that at 7:30 am it was 14 to 17. Just curious.
Leaving for the inlet right now with a postage stamp and string.

Thanks for the wind reports. It was sick over here. This sensor is dead on (it's not an Ikite sensor). It was about 28 to almost 40.

We were all litt on 7m kites. The scary part was the water, not the wind though. I forgot how bad you can get muched in 5 feet of raging white water. :shock:
