Rigged the 5.7, but it started to really honk just as I finished. Didn't feel like doing the premature exhaustion thing on a weekend day, so I rigged the 4.7 without the boom, checked the wind again, and it now looked OK for the 5.7. Planted the 4.7 under the van as a reserve. Didn't need it as the peak wind was at noon, just as iW said it would be. Very fun day, taking full advantage of the starboard-favored AlternaVulcatorium#3. SVs: 2/~25 = 8% (might've been 3, can't remember) PVs: 6/~35 = 17% Session fueled by The Soup Peddler, now delivering to my neighborhood. Yum. Life is good. |
