Work, Surf, Eat, Sleep, Repeat.....

Hi all. The rains stopped about a week ago and its been warm and dry here in the Bay Area. Possibly due in part to the NE hot air coming from Berkeley, but thats for the weather man to figure out. I haven't been out in the surf for almost two months and it has been slowly chewing away my brain. Maybe some of you have noticed my erratic behavior as of late?.......no?........same as always, eh? Anyway, Bolinas was great fun, offshore winds, waist high waves, almost 50 degree water(yikes!). I don't know how I am typing, I still can't feel my fingers. The winds near-shore were only 4-10 knots with the buoy winds at 22 knots. That may mean nothing to most of you, but to us here that means sailing season is about to start. I would guess we will get one, maybe two, more storms and that will be it. Simon, are you listening? Get out there and sail! Sorry I couldn't go with you lately, but duty(surf) calls. A big thanks to Halekai36 for getting the CS forum, my boat should sell any day because of it!!! I will post on it later, after the sleep part of my cycle(see above). I have some links and info and maybe we can make a sticky post for others to add. Thats it for now, fair winds and smell ya later.
BF

PS. Thanks to all of you that responded to my PM asking for advice. I didn't get to reply to all of you, but your thoughts and ideas were all appreciated.

I didnt get a PM but it's cool, i see how you are but instead i've been going to Marina daily, no power or water yet. took the dink for a spin to the marina down the way to check out two of my Bro's boats (clipper 26 and catalina 27) chained to the dock(didnt pay their bill)hehe. the clipper has a brand spanking new 15 hp merc 4 stroke. what a friggen waste for a 26 footer(he wanted a bigger motor than mine with electric start). i took mine out for a motor spin cuz of no wind but should be cruising soon! hope all is good with you.
