Once a year sailing at Marysville

10/9/12 Tuesday, Marysville

The wind forecast looked good south winds to 30 with sunny warm temperatures.
Had a day to plan for this one so no excuses.

With S winds to 10-30 I rigged the 5.0 with the 85 liter JP and was on the water by 3:00.
Mostly planing conditions with some decent swell to play on. 
Six of the local crew showed up, Chris, Mike, Keith, Craig, Millard and myself.
Sail sizes ranged from 5.0  - 5.5

Sail Time: 2 hours from 3:00 - 5:30
Gear: 5.0 with 85 liter board
Conditions: St Clair River sailing at it's best 3-4 swell at peak.
Weather: Air 60s water 60s.
Wind:  Gusty south winds maximum of 10-30+ 
Schooled: Hero jibes on the inside flat water and fun city in the middle with the river swell playground.
