It did get very breezy here in St Clair Shores, Milner Street, around 6 pm. Easily 15-20 mph, but I didn't get a chance to get out. ): .The MB weathertalker never reported these conditions - could it be the 5 miles downwind location wasn't as windy?<br />
I am monitoring todays winds seems to be going from S to SSW within the past hour..

Hello all<br />
Just a quick note to inform you I finally got out at Lakewood (Manningf and<br />
riverside) today for about an hour around<br />
3pm and WOW!! What a gas. I think Beachgrove area is done for me unless Lake wood is<br />
tied up with an event.<br />
I got there around 2:30 and although it looked marginal with wind blowing due East I<br />
rigged a 7.5 and used Annabels<br />
Techno. I walked down the ramp into the water and jumped on the board about 6 feet<br />
from shore with a 15.5 inch fin, How<br />
easy is that?<br />

I was always hesitant to sail Easterly winds on St. Clair owing to the choppieness<br />
and the fact that the wind is blowing<br />
the same direction as the current so you must stay mindfull of your launch spot.<br />
Anyway I jumped on the board and sailed<br />
for almost an hour and almost never dropped off plane and as the wind increased along<br />
with power I was easily able to<br />
come in well upwind of the launch ramp + I was barefoot. Although I would have liked<br />
to have had a good 6.5 session I<br />
can hardly complain as I am finding on the Easterly direction the wind is so much<br />
steadier than the fluuky west winds we<br />
get. Also gives you a chance to jibe close to shore on a port tack rather than the<br />
usual starboard side, with a little<br />
more wind the jumps will begin to get interesting I am sure. See you there Don Thanks Don. Yeah, from sailin…tag:miwindsurfing.com,2010-07-26:5427722:Comment:16542010-07-26T12:14:28.000ZBrianhttp://miwindsurfing.com/profile/Brian
Thanks Don. Yeah, from sailing OP'd on 4.2's and 3.0's, to rigging the biggest stuff in MI is quite a change. It's nice to sail warm water though!
