Tried Saints Landing in the Brewster Flats. Lots of wind, but it got very choppy very quickly once all sand bars got submerged. I have never seen chop this big and chaotic in knee-deep water! Nina did not like it at all, so we stopped after less than 1 hour.

I went for a second short session in Barnstable Harbor to check it out in west wind with almost no north in it. Fun! The wind chop was almost as high, but much better organized - straight-on bumps in one direction, but nice runs going back. Very gusty, though, from slog to out-of-control overpowered. Needed the Skate 110 instead of the 3S 96 because of the lulls.

Saints Landing, Brewster. Looked good when we rigged, but was way too choppy for fun soon after we started sailing, and got worse as the tide rose. Will have to go back and try to sail between the sandbars at low tide. Skate 90, Idol 4.2.

Saints Landing, Brewster. Not as flat as Peter had promised. Wind picked up while I rigged; had to rig down to 4.7 without getting the bigger sail even wet, so it took a while to get onto the water. Borrowed a GPS from Peter, but had to return it after sailing just a few runs because Peter left. Stayed around and sailed with Hardie.
