I sailed with KenP from 4-5:30 on 6.2/9'6" epoxy no_nose. I was able
to plane much sooner and found the channel with up to 3' swell
manageable with the big board until 5ish when it came up strong. I
worked at it another half hour and called it quits before I broke
something. With the Northerly wind direction, it was weird getting
more air on starboard than on port. The no_nose was fun to use making
turns in the swell until the wind was up good.
