Day 5 of the 2015 season: EPIC butter at Bahia Honda Key

Dawn patrol - on the water by 9.  Obeying the Sailflow forecast for early ESE lightening up by noon.
ESE is nearly perfect for Bahia Honda. Low tide was good too with extremely smooth shallow water on the inside. Occasional wavettes would  sneak in and add to the fun.
Worked my way upwind to a butter paradise, enjoyed some time there carving in between the wavettes.


Highlight of the day:  Nothing like the feeling of ripping along in velvet smooth butter
TOW:  9:00 - 10:00
Gear:  11M and 140 Mako board
Water Conditions: Flat water with wavettes
Weather:   80 degrees and partly cloudy  
Wind:  15-20 MPH from the ESE. Perfect side on
Schooled:  Carving down wind
