If it is going to be a no wind weekend better keep an eye on Grants. It took off this morning and really pumped out a session. On the water near 7:00 with the 7 and 115L S-type. Mike got there as I was headed out and went with his 5.8. By 8:00 I had to switch to the 6.0 and 85L Sonic ripping around fully powered to whacked out for more than 2 hours. Ended with another short sesh on the 7.0 before it died. Tons of campers made us have to launch at the north end. At least it was too windy for any of the boats to go out. I am glad Mike showed up as it is always fun to watch the freestyle tricks, The only downer was going over the handle bars with the foot still stuck in the footstrap. I am limping pretty bad and it is only 2 weeks until the Gorge trip. But I was able to keep sailing and hopefully the ice will do the trick. I have had 6 great sailing sesh’s in the last 10 days. Not bad for the summer doldrums.

Sailing both the Gorge and Utah on my 8'2" HiTech and my 3 Starboards; Sonic 85L, S-Type 115L, and Carve 135L. Small quiver is Northwave, larger sails are Ezzy and Sailworks. Often in my white Odyssey but also in my wife's motor home.
