Careful what you wish for


A few days ago, as the weekend closed in, I've been silently wishing for more wind.

I asked for it. I got it. (crap?!)

.SUNDAY...WEST STORM FORCE WINDS TO 50 KNOTS. 
My most reliable computer models show 34 knots gusting to 48 knots at a slight WNW, which is good in terms of direction for nailing a proper angle for maximum speed.

The storm force winds should lower the water level in the bay by as much as 1 foot, possibly as much as two feet, and that will really diminish any wind chop that I'll be dealing with. On the downside, there is a sand bar that now could now pose a real problem as its located right in my desired track.

Anyway, both GPS's are charged up, and I'm pretty charged up as well. ;-)
