150th session of the year. YAY!! I arrived at 9am after scarfing down some Tweezer-cakes at home. Anyways, I arrived to 1 Wing out and 15kts. A bit chilly but not much shore break so rigged quick. Roy was rigging his kite as I headed out. Got in an hour before others showed up, H-Rocker and The Junkman both on the water as I decided to pull the plug as my arm was hurting and it's my wife's bday tomorrow so figured I should get home and earn some credits because I'd like to sail again tomorrow, I guess we'll see. HA! Really good conditions, some waves and swell to play on further out off CP. Saw The Twizz foiling out at 'Tweezers'. I was going to head over and say Hi but as I was going between MTI and some other rocks, all I saw was a big load of kelp so decided to just wave to him and head back to CP. He didn't wave back. It started raining harder and the wind picked up to 20-25kts so I headed in as I was pretty chilly willy too! TnT and North Benny were heading out as I was packing up. MF4 was humming and hawing if he was going to head out, I think the hawing won. It's definitely not summer anymore, winter is here as I wore gloves and my neoprene beanie today instead of my BOBSON ball cap. It might be time to pull out the 5/4 soon as the 4/3 wasn't keeping my boys warm when I tested out the water temp twice today to see what you guys are dealing with. Hoping for another session tomorrow. I wouldn't mind some flatter water conditions but if I get out, I'll take what I get.
BOBSON OUT!!
