me agree that very few locally practical sports compare to WSing in classic Gorge conditions. But three months? me start sailing, usually on 4.2s or smaller, in late Mar or early April. April and May CAN blow hard and very often; this year they provided only a dozen good days. Sep and Oct have sucked (but me was wrong earlier; this year is only a little worse than some recent years have been, according to friends who keep logs), but are good some years. One guy me know clocked 26 good days in Sep alone one year (but then a couple of hours wears him out), virtually all in your front yard, and one May blew hard 26 days out east.

Yes, the WSing press -- whatever that is -- blows a lot harder and more often than the actual wind does, even more so in certain other mainland hot spots.

But lemme ask ya . . . do you know of a better spot, all things considered, to live at for summertime (i.e., April - Sept)WSing? If so, let me know; Im free to move when me find it.

me once met a large auto dealership owner who was wearing a tie clip bearing the letters YCDBSOYA . . . You Cant Do Business Sitting On Your Ass. We need to find you a tie clip that says YCWSSOYA.
