Met up with Esteban at Saratoga Springs.
Thinking it would be lighter winds I brought slalom gear (117 isonic and 7.5m Turbo.)
Well, that was wrong - way too overpowered. 5.7m and something around 100l would have been perfect.

Nothing 6cm of outhual couldn't somewhat cure.

Despite being overpowered, Esteban and I made the journey to the other side. We ended up 1/2 way between American Fork Harbor and Lindon Harbor.
After we turned around Esteban's harness line broke. We preformed a boom flip rotation operation which took a little longer than expected, but was successful.
It is good to sail with buddies.

We made it back to Saratoga Springs just as the wind backed off.

Water is low but still warm.

Love rigging in the grass at the marina there. We could use more launches like that.


Saturday looks good - who sailboarding with us?
