Summer Time is Good
By Scott | June 28, 2009
For Sunday June 28 the weather forecast was for some brisk winds west late afternoon but it was already white capping hard when I pulled into the Maumee Bay State Park beach parking lot around 1:00pm. I could see there were lulls so I rigged up my 6.5 to go play. About 45 minutes later a huge long gust hit me that probably a 4.5 would have been good for so I went in and rigged down to my 5.5 which was the smallest I had brought with me. After about 45 minutes of sailing I quit as I wasn’t having much fun sailing sheeted out all the time and I only had my large 160 liter board with me. Man it was blowing and the wind lovers were out. About a dozen windsurfers, a handful of kiteboarders, some jet skiers and swimmers all were contending for a spot in the waves on what was a beautiful Ohio 88 degree day with low humidity.
