F2 FX IV Formula / Exocet Sting 134 - Mauisails TitanGS 9.0 / Titan 6.5  - Wind ENE 15-20 kts

Fun day out at Coal Point, definitely the windiest spot on the lake in a noreaster.   Headed out about 2pm on the formula board and had some good runs right up to Belmont then back down to Wangi.  Steve and Byron were out doing some tuning.

By the end it was getting tough on the formula board, as wind had filled in a bit so dropped down to 6.5 and slalom board.  Not quite enough for the small sail so switched back to the 9.0 on the slalom board and had lots of fun blasting around.  7.5 would probably have been best, but mine is out of action at the moment.

Nice to have the nor-easters back!!
