Arrive to 10-12kts, started to rig the 6.0m and then it picked up to 15kts, so rigged the 5.2m as that sail feel much smaller and easier to handle. GUStastic showed up just as I was headed out and he started rigging his 6.0m Wang. Got out and schlogged for a minute and then caught a gust and BOOM, it was on!! Well that last for 5 mins then big holes, came back a bit but only for 10-15 mins, ended up with huge hole of nothing in between 10-12kt gusts so schlogged in with chilly fingers. Gussy was derigging, well played Gussy!! Lots of junk and kelp in the water, guessing with the strong winds and storms kelp has been pulled off the bottom and just floating off the beaches. Came home and as it was only 11am I didn't crack open a Corona but went into my garage and re-rigged sails to add some shims to the cambers for a bit better shape for the low end. Hoping to be able to go with 7.0m in 8-15kts, 5.2m in 15-20kts and the 3.7m in anything above 20kts. That's the thought anyways. 3 rigs and 1 board. Yes, I am a minimalist. Ha!
