Jay,

In looking at google earth, east seems very good. in truth even ESE looks doable with any type of board. it's a little tight at the start, but not upwind. Once you round the corner it's a little broad of a reach and would be quite fast.

Man, talk about no wind on the weekends for this thing. I hope it comes off soon. Good luck.

Kent

East definitely works, that would give you both a tight reach and also a broad reach. It might even bring a little higher water level on that side of the bay so our fins don't hit bottom, But its up to Jay, hopefully wind soon

Stay tuned....

Default race

Just my thoughts I think you should still wait for a weekend there got to be a front soon the jupiter to ft lauderdale race was held on a monday which was also a holiday we had 70 riders but should have had well over a 100 if it was held on a weekend. just think about it not everyone can catch a cold and call in sick in 48 hours and as the eclipse rep I dont want every kid to skip school just to win a eclipse kite.
