Dawn patrol at Waterfront Park before the wind dropped out. Some big growlers in the channel and super choppy. Good fang and nice stretch before an afternoon session.

Langlois, OR, USA - Floras Lake

Sailworks NX 7.0, Goya Bolt 125, MFC KPR-44, Wind: ~12G20 knots

Launched about 2:15 PM, conditions were close to perfect for this kit. Made some nice runs and then, right on cue at 5 km the leg cramps started up again. Did some resting and was able to sail about another 5 km until about 3:20 PM when the wind backed off slightly. More resting and about 4:15 the wind was back with a little more gusto. Made a few runs and even got to try the adjustable outhaul to flatten the sail some but the gust were just a tad more than made sailing comfortable - and I'm all in for comfort these days Laughing.

While I was dinking around, RD was putting some serious km on his Slingshot windsurfing foil. About half way through the day he came in and got his Canmore GPS - hopefully we can get the data off of it in a format for that KA72 can use.

You were up early Smile.

Thanks for the quick response in getting RD into the system!

Question: On lighter wind days, like yesterday, RD spent the day foiling (Starboard Futura 135 / Slingshot foil) - unfortunately without GPS... Do you have any issues mixing foiling and 'straight windsurfing' numbers in his data?

Up at 5AM most mornings so an early morning sess after breakfast is a good way to start the day.

No problems at all. Nice to see the numbers the foils are getting.
