3rd cranked on Saturday. It built up in the afternoon, and by 4 pm I was
fully powered to overpowered on my 4.0 (145 lbs, 8'6 glass board). The
channel was solid 3.5 for the latter part of the afternoon. The wind stayed
up until sunset, although by 6:30 everybody was back on shore with a big
grin 8) An excellent session overall.

That session, along with last week's discussions, prompted me to get a VHF
radio yesterday (I got the Apelco 520).
