Utah Windriders Association

Already tired from so much sailing yesterday and end up with one of the longest, highest wind, days at Grants this year. Not complaining though. On the water a little after 8:00 with last meter reading 27G33. Chose 5.2 over 4.7 and the 5.2 was ok because the wind had dropped off a couple of mph by the time I rigged. Still, maxed out even with maximum outhaul. By 10:00 I came in licking my wounds as Josh and Greg? showed up. Rigged 6.0 for the 22mph winds and did fine until it climbed back up to 27 again. Too bad I had derigged the 5.2. Hung on for dear life until 1:00 and bagged it. Went assuming I would see more rain than wind and ended up having a great small board morning (same as yesterday, don't believe NOAA).
