Hello Friends,
Another windy start for the day. As we kicked off it was ESE at 15-20 kts under partly cloudy skies. Ocean was not looking very interesting as a consequence, although the swell has come up as predicted and as of 0500 was 2.3 metres out at sea with an 8-sec period and coming from the SE. Unfortunately, also as predicted, the wind looks like staying SE through Saturday.
Guess we’ll have to wait until next week for things to potentially change for the better on the surfin’ front.
In the meantime, have yourself a top old Wednesday, and keep on smilin’!
