Anyone one thinking about sailing the ocean today?

Perfect! If that's rain on the lens maybe you won't have to share the beach and parking lot with a crowd!

Here in NJ the wind is supposed to go offshore later this AM...near high tide. It's very light now. There is a fun sized swell in the water here too. With the cloudy rainy skies, the beaches will be empty for the most part. I'm gonna grab me a nice mid day surf. Happy Fathers Day to all you Dad's out there.

Been a windsnob for about a decade. Kids and work took over so I limited myself (my wife did) to sub 6.0 days. Biggest sail has been a 5.8 and down to just one 90l board. Still go out everyday I can but it cut my days quite a bit. After moving to Savannah I just wasn't getting enough time on the water and waves suck too bad for sup to supplement so I got a "big" rig. 6.3 world sail brand new off eBay(few years old) for $240. New Baja boom from windance, $100 bucks, free shipping. Everything still works on my 430 mast. Baja boom has plastic front end and clew but really for a hundred Bucks I'm not complaining. Sail looks killer and I have had many world sails before. I am ready for summer now! Got 15-20 kt late sea breeze on tap for today(and its Father's Day so I can go) to try everything out.

Once again SUP saved the day! the wind died and then went West for a while waves were great for a bit until the North wind bumped it up. Confused
