Utah Windriders Association

At 2:00PM Grant Jr. and I arrived at DC to great whitecaps and unbelievable crowds. People were parking on the road and walking in due to lack of parking spaces at Island Beach, so we headed to Sailboat Beach hoping for less congestion...NO SUCH LUCK!!! Finally found a parking space and threaded our way down to the beach to rig. On the water by 2:30 with the wind backing off by the minute. Jr. rigged a 7.7 and I rigged an 8.5 and we sailed out into the washing machine. Wakes were coming from every direction and we fought for space among the jet skis and boaters. Finally caught some good wind fingers and worked our way up toward the dam for some planers. Left at 4:30 feeling like we`d been in some weird video game...You know, like Sponge Bob`s "demolition boat derby"!
