Things are looking good from the forecast at least for westerly winds.
NWS is down but weatherunderground carries their marine forecast info: For the south zone including Naples Today West winds 15 to 20 knots. Seas 2 to 4 feet near shore and up to 4 to 6 feet well offshore. Bay and inland waters choppy in exposed areas. Chance of showers. Tonight West winds 20 knots. Seas 3 to 5 feet near shore and up to 6 to 8 feet well offshore. Bay and inland waters choppy in exposed areas. For the north zone including Ft. Myers Today West winds 15 to 20 knots. Seas 3 to 5 feet. Bay and inland waters a moderate chop. Isolated rain showers in the morning. Tonight West winds 20 to 25 knots. Seas 4 to 6 feet. Bay and inland waters rough. Slight chance of showers after midnight. http://www.wunderground.com/MAR/GM/656.html Looking light and out of the SW in Naples as it seemed yesterday. The frontal boundary is just moving over Naples now. Hope the wind fills in from good directions for the race. Have fun guys!

no john
First of all I would like to thanks every single person for coming to Naples from far and near on Monday jan 19th to participate in our race, I know so many of you come a long way to enter this race and I cant tell you how much we appreciate it, and also thanks to everyone who took time out to help us. We were so excited that the wind was perfect for the race but as all kiteboarders know Mother Nature has her own plans, you can’t imagine how bad I felt when I saw the kiter’s working to keep the kites in the air then the wind just died. WE ARE GOING TO REDO THE RACE, WE ARE WAITING UNTILL A FEW OTHER EVENTS HAVE PASSED AND WILL START LOOKING AT THE WIND IN MARCH. PS: KEEP YOUR SHIRTS SO THAT YOU WILL BE SAME NUMBER AND REGISTRATION WILL BE A BREEZE. SEE YOU SOON AT JUPITER INVASION JUPITER 60M RACE TAMPA MASTER RACE MIAMI KITE COMP FORT MYER TO NAPLES RACE THANKS ENRIQUE, KELLY, GORDON, FRITZ WIND STALKERS KITEBOARDING SERVICES INC, SUB SKIN
