    Decided to hit it early as I saw that RVYC was 10-15kts at 8:30am, headed to CP and arrived to what looked like 8-12kts. So since I have been struggling with my light wind Winging, decided to stay with the Windfoil in light winds. Good Call Bobson!! Rigged up a fairly powerful 6.0m Sailworks Flyer and the 899(925cm2) front foil. As soon as I was on the water the wind picked up to 10-14kts and fairly steady for 45 mins. Then Da Pope came out and weird, the wind died off. Well, good news was the wind came back strong at first 10-15kts but then lightened quickly and was 8 to maybe 12kts but more like 8-10 most of the time. H-Rock and Alex also both out working hard to stay on foil. So if coming off the foil I'd have to watch for the 10-12kt gusts to get back up as I was getting tired so looked for gusts to jibe in and then saw a prolonged gust to get back into the boat launch. SWEET!! The others followed right after that. Wifey and Dog waiting onshore to say Hi. As I was packing up it looked as if the wind came back a little to maybe 8-12kts but I was done as there was lots of pumping today. RuupDoggy was hanging around the parking lot telling jokes and threatening to go out. I packed up and headed to have a coffee with the wife and dog as it was the dogs birthday today...well, 6 month birthday...does that count..?? Also my 32nd anniversary of working at the same job. Retirement is just around the corner then I'm going to get serious foiling. Also, Easter dinner at the in-laws tonight where I hear there are a couple of ice cold Corona's waiting for me. WooHoo!! Good Times!!
    BOBSON OUT!!
