Another stellar day on d'Bear!! Had a nice mix of Sailors & Kiters with the usual blend of idiots in power boats, pontoons, & jetskis, but we alll managed to co-exist. Sails ranged from 6.5 to 9.0 w/ kites around 12 to 17. As per normal it was alternatively gusty, holey,dead calm to raging, which made it all the more rewarding for a couple of apre'session brews.
Now if they'll get all the buoys out of the way, and the kiddies in school, WE CAN HAVE OUR LAKE BACK !!! j.N.
Yeah, it was a great day. Good wind, good friends.
The power boaters were out in force. My favorite was the drunk guy on a boat with a megaphone. Must have felt that public drunkenness on a motor vehicle wasn't good enough if he couldn't make sure everyone knew!
I'm with you on the removal of what I like to call "LAKE FURNITURE". Then my rank beginner self can try and get out my kite again without the worry of wrapping it around a dock, pontoon, etc...
