9/22/20, Grants, 5.2/6.0/86L
Posted: Tue Sep 22, 2020 3:19 pmI wasn’t expecting to get rained on 3 times on the way to the lake nor was I expecting 5.2 winds. Oh well. It seems like the NOAA weather forecasters are on Corona leave. Sailed until 9:00 on the 6.0 but not used to having to way oversheet to survive jibes on the east side; especially when the penalty is slamming into the dike. By then I was getting 22mph readings on my wind meter and switched to the 5.2. Totally powered on the 5.2 and small race board until 10:45 when it started dropping. Sailed until 11:00 but winds had turned too east to be fun so quit. Still whitecaps when I left. Warm air but water getting cool. Still got by with a 3/2 with sleeves.
