Roo (180km):
4930 days ago ARooBar, Chinook, WA, US
Naish 2010 Stealth 5.2, Carbon Art 44, Curtis/Roo SpeedFire 20
Was Billy no mates today at ARooBar, seems no one wants to speedsail in winter here...had to the place to myself for the third time in a month. Huey played silly buggers as usual, started south and progressively went west over the hour before the tide shut down play for the day. Sailed all legs of the sandbar, in both directions....bizare day! The sandbar moved over the winter and it's shallower than it used to be. Had sun, then rain, then squalls, then sun with 4 degree water and 8 degree air....toasty. Looks like Huey wants to play again this weekend and next week...hope the new sails and fins arrive by then. I ran the Speedfire 20 for the first time today, a little beauty. Loads of grunt and flys the tail as soon as it loads up. Got some thicker ones coming to test on the tighter courses.
