Picture kid are you heading out to take pretty pictures and eat pizza? If so call me we bailed on racing last night and I'm game for a bit of adventure....(read that as my MIL is here and I want an excuse to leave for a bit)!

Sitting at Ole's Whaffke shop..... Doesn't look pretty out there. Gusts over 30k in the bay already and to 25k all morning at the bucket.

[Photoboy]

07:15 at Thorton Beach overlook, looking towards Point Reyes...

Rain is here now and coming down quite nicely...should pass by the time they get to lightship.

Maybe.

[Photoboy]

Nick is at Point Bonita...

winds mid to high 20s with spikes to 40...

only 5 starters ( 10:00 update, make that 13, with 10 on course currently)

viz crappy improving

Raining pretty hard

sea state 8-11 feet out of sw long period

sez USCG will not employ 47' rescue boats in an emergency...sling via helo would be used and
crews required to abandon ship.....YIKES!!

channel was roughest with ebb
