Daily tides have been sucking... during the day... 7ft tide at 2pm :(
High Tide 2:37 AM 7.36 feet
Low Tide 8:59 AM 1.42 feet
High Tide 2:12 PM 7.73 feet
Low Tide 9:24 PM -0.35 feet


Tide : http://www.ikitesurf.com/windandwhere.iws?regionID=122&g...

Not sure about the wind... and expected fog.

Saturday: Areas of fog before 10am. Otherwise, mostly sunny, with a high near 52. West northwest wind between 4 and 7 mph becoming calm.

Saturday Night: Patchy fog after 10pm. Otherwise, partly cloudy, with a low around 41. East northeast wind between 3 and 5 mph.

I think I'll be down, if I am I'll send a ping but I might just tool around in manzanita.

weather nor tides look very promising. Tides are a sure thing of course, but the weather is far from that. Like Bill pointed out, an early morning tide is what we have. It's been a real sucky winter so far

You guys are right. Conditions have changed from when I saw it last.
OK
Lets shoot for next weekend.
Thanks

Jim- I got a Hardcore!

Ya, let's keep an eye for how it looks next weekend. Conditions have been poor for so long, I hope I can remember how :P

Congrats on the purchase

I'll be out next Sunday- need to give the new libre mods a shakedown, but it all depends on the weather- I may be flying something else:smilegrin:

its still not fair that someone has Sunset as their backyard ... that house for sale about 6 doors down from Sunny J's house is tempting now.

Sean, Grant, Ken(s) anyone wanna through some cash together

oh nevermind, im asking PL if I can move to oregon instead.
