Winds Declining

Nobody I talked to at the beach on Monday had any kind words to say about the wind that day. I arrived in the afternoon to hear everybody telling me how gusty it was - even people who are normally very positive. Sure enough, they were right - gusty and shift 4.5. The most positive remark I heard was from local sailor, Jazz, who remarked, "nothing special out there today, yeah?"

Winds today were only sailable for people with floaty boards and big sails. Formula weather. Winds will drop even more tomorrow as an approaching front shoves our high pressure out of it's trade wind producing position. Time to let the bodies recuperate and do maintenance on the gear for a few days.
