				Craig was dead on.  Grant Mcallister & I arrived @ Deer Creek about 12:30.  I rigged a 7.5 & he rigged a 6.9.  Cloud came over & it sprinkled a little & totally shut it down.  It even went north for about 30 minutes then it came back.  Sailed two hours + on my Hypersonic 130.  I am starting to love that board.  Grant sailed his Hypersonic 105 for the 1st time & he was loving it. Best wind of the day came on about 5:00 as we were packing up to leave.  Hope someone else got some of it.

Mike

				Sailboat beach is the closest site to the dam that you get to from the main Deer Creek access.  It has picnic areas around it.  It generally has a little better wind, but a shorter reach--
