Might be time to start scrapping those little spikey green things off the bottom of the ocean again PH.

Is there anybody left at Nitinat. Poor buggers. Might get some relief from the rain Fri/Sat, then its back to rain early next week too!
Dismal end to what was a good summer.

don't despair people

.....as my memory serves me...September is usually warm, if not HOT. I'm thinking we've got at least another week or two of good sailing left in the summertime fun-bag!!! HA!

Maybe a bit more for us Big Gear Dudes!

I left Nitinat Monday the 23rd. There were exactly 3 parties left in the campsite when I left. Sunday was a light wind day requiring 7.0 metre + sails with lots of holes. Monday was setting up to be even lighter.

On Saturday Vic measured 40 mm of rain between 8 a.m. and noon. I imagine that today, Tuesday, might break that precip mark.

I'm sure there are more sailable days ahead but nothing like the 10 day stretches of good sailing experienced through last Friday.

Hey, the SE are starting to blow at Columbia Beach (was on the 12m on Saturday). Thankfully I live in Parksville and get that beach all to myself for kiting 90% of the time. Come up and check it out when the pressure gradient is right.
