SW Monday Report
Enjoyed warm SW yesterday with sunny skies and 4.2m conditions! I was initially denied at Ramp 34 due to a drop in wind and heavy current, but redeemed with a sunset offshore session at the Point! Chest to head high waves and strong winds prevailed well after sunset. Charlie, Dan and I caught it. We were a little worried about Dan as we lost him after the sun set and with offshore winds blowing over 35 knots, if he was out at sea, it would have been a long night. However, he washed ashore south of where we launched after his universal became disconnected. Luckily nothing was lost, and we all enjoyed a cold early evening brew on the beach. Fun times!

Early evening at the Point. Notice the blowing sand...I should have rigged 4.2m but rather had a 4.7m out there. I would have rigged down, but we simply did not have enough time before it got dark...can't wait to turn the clocks forward?!
