Yep, I didn't sail friday (sighseeing with the wife) but heard it was another
slightly windier 6.0 day.

Sat was the best day of my trip (of 12 days). Glad I had at least one good
day there...You lucked out.

Good to know. I had to leave at 1pm that day so I didn't sail, but it was
howly all night and somewhat in the morning. I was hoping to change the
flight. I guess I didn't miss a 4.0 day of something...

We had to go through NY on the way back (free flight) and dues to delays with
the weather we didn't get back to SF until 11:30pm even thoiugh we left at
1pm. I would have rather get on your flight and sail a bit on sunday... :-) oh
well...
