Cancel Lexington, Hello Blue Lagoon

Cancel Lexington, Hello Blue Lagoon

Day 15 for the 2013 season - Blue Lagoon 6-13-2013 Sunday.

All reports pointed to a Lexington day but messages coming back from Lexington said wind was offshore so stayed in town and went to Blue Lagoon.
When I first arrived the wind was lite so I rigged the 6.0 and sailed it from noon - 2:00.
Intermittent planning puffs turned into steady NNW winds and eventually higher steadier NNW to the point where I had to rigged down to the 5.0. Back on the water by 2:30 with the 5.0 but it wasn't quite enough, wind speed dropped slightly so came back in and rigged the 5.5 sail and back on the water by 3:30. Sailed till 5:00 when wind became holy so came in and called it a day.

Sail Time: 4.0 hours from 12:00 - 5:00
Gear: 6.0, 5.0, 5.5 with 100 liter board
Conditions: Fairly flat conditions
Weather: Sunny Air 70s water 60s.
Wind:  NNW to 30 mph

Schooled: Downwind 360s
