Buddy was out in LJ this morning on a sport boat and said it was a bit breezy and the swells were mixed.

I was inside Mission Bay and the windblown swells were not fun.

I got on the water about 7:30A, and picked up a quick Spottie, but around 9:00A, a pretty steady onshore wind kicked up. It was strong enough that the sailboats were doing 10-15kts easy.

Needless to say, it became extremely difficult to make any headway (at least for me) or even hold position.

I cut my day short after about 4 hours on the water. Once the wind started, my FF metered absolutely nothing anyway.

Duck and Cover!
