Well, my family decided to keep me away from sailing on Saturday :-) Mainly because Irina still uses a shorty and on a day like last Friday it's kind of challenging. You probably saw her coming out on a laser. I'm getting a full suit for her and a hood. This should make her running for a bit longer than the shorty. :-) Unfortunatelly I almost missed you (?) on Friday. While was rigging, I think I spotted up to 4 sails. After you left the conditions were lighter but very variable, switching around NW-NE from complete no go to about 5.0-5.5. Then dropped around 5pm.
I DID SEE YOUR WIFE OUT. IT LOOKED LIKE A BLAST! I WOULD LOOK INTO A DRY SUIT. I HAVE A Bare Polar dry., wetsuit bottom with a baggy top. You can wear a long john top and a polar fleece jacket under it. I sail into December in it and I'm not cold, my hands would give out first. Your wife will not complain that she is cold, that means you get to sail longer.
Were you on a Ezzy sail? I think I saw you at the launch just before I left. I wish I got there 2 hours earlier. I hope you had a good time. Brian
Yes, that was me. If I'd got there 2 hours earlier I wouldn't be able to sail. because this Ezzy is 6.6 and the smallest of two I have. :-) It's quite tunable though and can even be used with cams removed. I do need smaller board and smaller sail but pretty much sure Irina will strangle me if I mention something like that to her. :-)))))
So, were there really 4 of you or I was hallucinating? :-)

There was 3 of us out. Steve, Singe, and myself at the launch you sailed down to.
