Sunday Morning

Sunday morning here on Maui and it looks to be nice day so far. We've gotten off to a good start for windsurfing in March so far. Three days in a row so far. Friday turned out to be a pretty fun day of sailing. Got the late session after some work meetings, on the water at 4pm on 5.3 and 90L. Shared Uppers with just a few other late afternoon sailors. Some nice logo- to head-high sets occasionally and the 5.3 was perfect. I hear that Hookipa was pretty nice on Friday with mast high smoothies.

Yesterday held promise for an even better day, but somehow didn't quite make it. Winds in the early afternoon were still in the 5.0 - 5.3 range for guys, 4.5 - 4.7 for the wahines. Then around 3ish the wind kicked in and everyone was overpowered. By the time people came in and rigged down, the wind dropped back also.

Kanaha was almost like a summer day yesterday with all the local Maui windsurfers making a day of it with their families. All the local young rippers were out practing their freestyle and the beach and parking lot was a social hub bub of windsurfing parents. The visitors are also starting to return, seeing a lot more rental gear and rental cars. Looks like the windsurfing season has kicked off.
