The lost beach

The best time I ever had on Superior was along the south shore near the Brule River. It was back during the heatwave/drought years of the late eighties, and even though it was a Northeaster, it was a toasty warm August day. I remember being in a shorty with a perfect sideshore wind. The swell was wo...

Kevin, It might take a little bit of getting used to an 8.0 after being dialed into your 6.5 and, as Pete said, playing around with the tuning, harness lines etc. will help with that. In this instance it sounds like you were just plain overpowered, there is a big difference between an 8.0 and 6.5. I...

Wha?

Thought of going to Pepin today, checked the wind at 8:00, looked good but 39 degrees. Sahright, it'll warm up. Checked it at 10 and its now 36!?!?. Aw, man, whimper, whimper, whimper. Maybe I'll just curl up in front of the fire and suck my thumb instead.

Waterspout?

Just caught the tail end of a story on the news about a waterspout spotted on an unamed lake near Faribault, they said there was no damage but that the odd fish might have got sucked up. I hope they didnt mean the Starboard type with a windsurfer attached to it. Preferably it was one of those skeg b...
