Early indications are that we may get some wind on Saturday or Sunday. Anyone keen for a sail?
Cheers,

No one keen to sail tomorrow and Sunday afternoon? Tomorrow should have Southerly wind from noon and Sunday should have WSW winds basically all day but I'll probably only go in the afternoon.
I'm open to any suggestions on the shore (Sandy Hook to Cape May). If wind is above 20kts and I have company I'll hit the ocean on Saturday in Cross Shore winds, Sunday probably one of the lakes as it will be cross off ocean side. |

Sun: SW winds 15 to 20 kt with gusts up to 25 kt. Seas 3 to 5 ft. |
I'm not sure if this direction will work on ocean side ... I'll be at Lakes Bay.

SW ocean side = perfect fun conditions. Only caveat is the potential for fog with the ocean still being cold and air predicted to be in the 80's. I may try to get out for an afternoon sesh in Spring Lake. Will see how things progress.

Perfect, I'll hit the lake tomorrow and then check lakes and ocean on Sunday.
Hope to have some company!

Saturday was on chilly side (54-56F) but wind was good. Sunday was much warmer (85F) but wind was weird - gusty, shifty ...
