The peak wind speeds were just what I wanted but it started off very streaky and up and down. Started on the 6.0 but after several trips where I nearly got on a plane 5 or 6 times a crossing, I went to the 7.0. But by 9:00 the 7.0 was too much on the east side and went back to the 6.0. It finally filled in after 9:00 and it was time for screaming reaches almost every trip across. For my gear at least it backed off very quickly at 10:00. Doug was able to rig a bigger kite and keep on ripping. Too many sailors for names but it was great to be sailing with Mike E. and Doug again. Nice morning.
