Just Another Beautiful Day on Maui

Today's windsurfing on the Maui northshore was a beautiful, mellow 5.0 day. Got there early to avoid the early afternoon crowds. Got on the water a little before noon, not too many others out. Sailed up to Uppers and enjoyed some uncrowded small-kine backside riding. The wind was a little shifty and up and down, but the 5.0 was usually big enough to get through the holes, except for some absolutely glassy holes in the break a couple of times.

Lots of folks out for a mellow Sunday sail. Matt Pritchard and his wife made it a family day of sailing and brother Kevin was out on a new Maui Sail with a video cam attached to the foot of his mast. I'm betting he'll be posting some video of today's session on Maui Sails forum.

By about 1:30, Kanaha was getting packed with windsurfers and local picnicers. The water was getting more crowded too. Wind was pretty northerly (onshore), especially as the day wore on. Early on was the time to get it, as clouds rolled in later in the afternoon. All in all though, another beautiful day on Maui.
