Saturday 5/19/2012, Little Glen Lake
It's been exactly a month since the last recordable windsurf session.
A surprise session Lake Michigan with 5-10 mph conditions but inland things were firing up.
Good conditions at Little Glen Lake got me on the water by 2:00. A bluebird day with 80 degrees plus and strong hot gusty winds from the south. Called the Bonaire of the north due to the sandy shallow bottom.
Sailed the 5.5 Ezzy SE with the101 liter RRD.
Sailed 2.5 hours from 2:00 until 5:00
Felt good to be back on the water especially in 80 plus degrees and 65 degree water very warm for this time of the year. Overdressed with the full summer wetsuit I easily could have been in a shorty.
Gear: 5.5 Ezzy SE and 101 liter RRD FSW.
Conditions: Gusty south winds with flat water.
Conditions: Gusty south winds with flat water.
