Rare Day at my Home Spot

Milner Beach, Thursday  7/19/2012

Rare day at Milner Beach, I cannot remember the last 5.5 session at my home spot it's probably been years.
Went down to the end of my street and immediately decided to rig the 5.5. The current conditions were side on NE winds 17-20 mph local wind site verified this. This is the best direction for this spot shallow flat water on the inside and miniature Lake Huron swells on the outside.
Went out on the 101 liter RRD and never look back. Sailed in steady absolutely no lulls for 4 hours straight until I could no longer hold on.
After almost a month without a session to write home about this was the one of my best days since Hatteras with the steadiness of the NE winds and warm water.

Sail Time: 4.0 hours between 4:00 - 8:00.
Gear: 5.5  Ezzy and 101 liter RRD.
Conditions: Side on NE, steady as Hatteras, winds of 15-20 nice predictable swell with flat water on the inside.
Weather: Air mid-60ss, cloudy/drizzle, water mid-70s.
Wind:  NE Hatteras style steady winds.
Schooled:  Just plain old blasting along, fun chop hoping, swell slashing and hero jibes.
