Nothing to brag about but, I thought a wind report would be helpful to others. Thermal wind came by the beach at around 3:00 pm. Gusty for about an hour with gusts barely getting my 9.2 planing for about one trip across the lake. Gusts were about 5 minutes apart. At around 4:00 it became quite steady, BUT, not enough to plane on my gear. I am guessing from 4:00 to 5:00 would have been a good "Formula" wind. Hmmm, what gear should I buy next? A bigger sail OR a formula board? Or should I just wait for more wind?

It was probably a bit stronger at SBB than in Charleston, but still...
