I got to Mona at 11:00 A.M. and it was blowing 15-18 and building slowly. Iput my 5.9 on my 130 lt board and had a great sesh. A little light at first but filled in nicely. Sailed way up the gut far enough to see the heron s nesting in the big trees and when it started to be too much,I headed back down and put the 5.9 on my 100 lt. board and went back out. Really nice and steady for another hour and a half, then at about 3:30 it kicked up another noch or two. Could have maybe rigged my 5.2 but had to get back to work. Craig, if you read this, thanks for your forcasts. Your 5.5 for Mona yesterday was right on the money.Keep up the great work. I look at your forcast before I do any thing else at the start of the day. It looks like I better go to Pelican Pt. today, so see you all there.Call in sick. Tom W.
