Off shore bouys look good this morning. 25 out of the south with only spot showers.
Leaving PDX at 9:30 and going to meet at Del Ray beach (around 11:30) if anyone wants to hook up for some DW's.

| Manzo would be good if there was more wind. S11 waves sw med with tide comming in til 3. I packed the car and am going to head to sb/dr. With the tide there's no room to landboard at manzo waiting for the wind...

Just got back from Newport, my best guess for a South wind was Nai Beach, but the North current was strong and the waves were trash, hard to stay upwind, pretty rough session, got beat up pretty good, nothing the locals didn't enjoy watching though

Sunset was great... I got there pretty late and was going to setup at the ship wreck and landboard for a bit but there wasn't enough hardback. I neded up helping a guy get his jeep unstuck after doing donuts on the beach and having his tire half submerged 
Went back south and followed the crew in-car up north to the shipwreck. Winds looked great, I measured 28-35 at one point, but that was _after_ wind had died down a bit!

Thanks for following the crew and giving us a hand. Totally appreciated!!
Was a good day today. I got pics - I'll post a couple now, but I'll have to post the rest later. Still got to wash out my gear.
Great day fer ser. Solid 9 and then the winds picked up and I was over-powered on my 7 - brutal for a little while. Had a lot of fun dropping into waves.

What an epic day!
The first 4 miles was nice 9m wind and head high + waves
The last 6 miles I was lit up on my 5m 
Thanks to our chase crew of Bill (arkay) and Christine  ....it was nice to have someone following us on shore.
Can't wait for our next warm and windy coast session
