Friday Offshore Winds

Trade winds finally picked up a notch to normal strength on Friday. The direction however was kind of weird. Sailing at Kanaha the wind was pretty offshore, making for a tricky launch and slog out to the wind line. I slogged my CultWave and 5.0 out and once at the wind line was pretty powered most of the time.

There were some small waves at Uppers, maybe waist to head high. The wind was pretty up and down. That combined with the direction made it pretty weird at times, but it was good get out nonetheless.

Today and tomorrow look sailable then it looks like winds will turn light for awhile. The weather geeks are even hinting at Kona winds later next week.
