I'm heading to Maui in 11 days, so thought I should acclimatise by going for a sail in 8 degree 25 knot conditions. Thank god I borrowed a neoprene balaclava. Please leave some wind & waves for me & my little fella.
A few more pics from today, less wind but a few more small waves the last few days and smoother water conditions. This was the 12th day in a row only 2 to go :(
Hey Tim i also recommend Sugar Cove just upwind from Sprecksville. Gets my vote and will be there again for my last sail tomorrow. Catch you back at Hampton to trade stories.
MikeyS said.. Just think. You're only 60% of the way to Everest Base Camp altitude on the top of Haleakala. Cool place.
Save us some North Shore wind for August.
But do they do it in board shorts and flip flops? :D
Been bit of a weird wind pattern lately and the locals agree. Back in 2013 it blew 25-35 everyday, all day for the two weeks we were here. This time we had 35-40 for the first two days, then back to 4.7m for a day or so and then 5.3 for the last week. Last two days I was off the water due to it being too light. But it's been fairly gusty too, more showers, etc. Hopefully back to normal by the time you arrive.
