if so, how were the waves? looks like the wind blew very well. was it
crowded?
Sherman Island was solid all weekend long, 6.0-5.0 sailing around the
clock. The tide was not ideal (late long ebb) and the strongest wind was
during the am flood/slack. The wind was strong enough to sail during the
flood, and as a matter of fact, the ramps were a bit better formed during
the flood. The secret spot had nice knee high peeling waves on Sunday.
After sailing in those wonderful conditions for 3 hours, I stopped at one
of the islands to feast on the ripe blackberries. Came back to the launch
with a red mouth - my daughter, Johanna, busted me right away, and asked me
why I did not bring them back for pancakes. Blackberry pancakes after
sailing are quite the treat.
The temperature was very warm the entire weekend, shorts/rash guard sailing
weather. The evenings were warmer then usual, enabling you to watch the
pretty delta sunsets. The quarter moon was very bright at night, casting a
strong light over the camping area - great for walks in the warm air. No
bugs, warm air, cold beer, cool light - what else can you ask for?
Quite a few folks making sure that August - sail naked month - was well
celebrated. Why is it only guys who sail naked?
