It was light but sailable. Sailed Sat. 3:30-5:30pm on a Bic Presto (9'2"/122L)
and a 7.0m2 Neil Pryde V8 Street Racer. I used light downhaul and negative
outhaul to really bag out the sail for low end power. With this setup, I was
powered and planing 95% of the time in the 12-14 knot winds.
Wind was better on Friday afternoon; sailed the same rig 4pm-6pm at 3rd Ave but
was more substantially powered.
