6/27 DC Sailboat Beach, FE160, 11.0

[ErikM]

I suppose I am getting desperate and expecting too much for this time of year at Deer Creek, but I tried anyway. On the water at 3:00 sailed until 5:00 and schlogged 90% of the time. But at least I PLANED!! 10% of the time and that makes it worthwhile (doesn't it?). The DAM CHUTE readings from yesterday are better than it was on the water. My new theory is if the direction is WSW instead of SW then the readings don't translate to the water.

I was wondering whether anyone was sailing at SBB. I was the lone sailor at IB, and my experience was quite similar to yours - a few rides with my 9.5 interspersed with lots of scholgging.
