Rick:
photos with the B buoy are in the lee of the yacht club to some extent depending how much S or W. The photos of the windward mark (GG bridge in the backround) is no further out in the bay than the start boat...same with photos of the lee mark in previous posts. If you take a look at Ikitesurf wind reading at Anita...that is a buoy that is just off the launch area and 2/3 the way windward towards the windward mark and the start boat, you can usually add 3-5 for the wind outside. the more south the wind has in it the difference is greater outside vs inside. When the wind is W it is filled into the beach...the GG bridge basically runs North (Marin side) and South (SF side)...also in these photos, I'm am shooting way more into the wind when the windward mark is shown...always looks windier when you look upwind :=)
hope that helps...steve
