Trades Return... sort of
As you can probably guess from Norm and Speedy's comments in the previous post, the winds returned yesterday. I'll have to rely on their reports as I was stuck in Honolulu all day yesterday. Yep, even on Maui the wind returns on the day when you can't get out of work. Course today, I put out all the fires by noon and was ready to head down the hill to get in my share of the fun. But noooooo. Maui's fickle winter trades decided that yesterday was enough, at least on the north shore. The wind absolutely tanked after about noon on the north shore. We're talking low teens. The graphs did show sailable wind in Kihei, so that was probably the place to be today. Guess I'm not quite desparate enough to head over and sail Kihei .... yet.

Kihei has been the spot for the last couple of days. I have been well powered on my 4.7 and Bernd on a 3.8 or 3.2. Winds have been shifty near shore but that's normal for Kihei. Lot's of action there too. We had a Moreno twin sighting as well as tons of other freestylers using the flat Kihei water to show off ther skill. If you come over here to sail watch the reef due to the low low tides it's pretty shallow, for you slalom sailors. See ya there! Today already is windy at 10:30! Norm
