August 30, 2008 - Windy at Home

It was supposed to rain all day, but there wasn't a cloud in the sky. Fairly cool at 15c, but winds around 30km - gusting to 50. I sailed on my 6.6 Hucker and Free Board. The best sailing was probably early in the morning, but I didn't like the thermometer (5c). I went out around 2:00pm and sailed for a good hour. The first 1/2 hour was excellent - then the wind started to vary quite a bit in both strenght and direction. Good day - some very fast runs in relatively flat water. Spencer had his buddies out on the Jetski while I was sailing.
