Default Sunday Ride

So I head to the Bay @ 4:00 in the Afternoon, keeping in mind that the wind reports indicated 11-14knts. I go there, its great. Takes me about 30 minutes to rig EVERYTHING(pump, untie knots, lines connecting, waiting for people to clear out of the way, launching, etc) and it turns out to be a lethargic day.
The winds went down to 9-11 knots, with my 13 meter yarga.(Im a bit lightweight).
To make matters worse, it was low tide. And when its low tide in Matheson Hammocks(Biscayne Bay), you come home with seaweed up to your ass. The water was up to my ankles, forcing me to pack up.
I, however, was the only dude with the smallest kite flying out there compared to some large BFK's.
thats a plus :lol:
any weekend stories u got?
