Fri Berkeley
Well powered on an 7.6 from 4-6. Way OP near Angel Island. I saw Darcey and
somebody else that launched from a 17' Whaler near Angel Island. TI would be
an ideal launch at this time of year!
I heard that Crissy was really windy, but only 2 guys went out!

Sat Crissy
Lots of wind from 3 until dark. I was fully powered on a 7.6. I sailed with
a friend of mine until 6:45. It was totally dark. We watched the moon rise
over the Berkeley hills--Really Cool!

Sun:
Not as much wind as Saturday, but still good. I was powered to OP on a 8.8.
Some folks on smaller sails got sucked out the gate with the ebb! Be careful
at this time of the year for the wind dropping off suddenly, especially if
you are outside of the gate during a big ebb!

Take a look at the COTW sensor for Saturday and Sunday. Once again, Crissy
looks really marginable. However, the wind was great for big gear.

We'll have to someday get a sensor 100M out into the water.
