Pretty gusty both days. Early start today (Tuesday) with strong gusts (up to 45 mph) coming through by 10. The wind backed off considerably after that, to the extent that I was able to get some good foiling rides (no foiling jibes yet, alas). Then the wind picked back up, and I had to rig down to 4.0. George & Stone were flying on their 7.5, as was Judy on her 5.7. Next to arrive was Steve Nyhus, who went out on (I think) a 7.0. Last to arrive (at least before I left) was Bill Riley (aka Riles) returning to windsurfing at IB after a long absence.

Water temp is now about 68ºF. Water level continues to drop, with the water's edge currently about 40-50 yards from the foot of the pedestrian ramp (the one by the restrooms).
