No, that one's too close! About 2 miles further west there's 2 of them on the beach... then another closer to Gulfport.
We got a late start (someone couldn't find their wetsuit) so we just blasted up the casino row, did a 180 and blasted back the other way since the water was so flat... and did a bunch of hull flying schenanigans out front of the yacht club.
it was blowing... and a blast. I rigged up an 8 or 9:1 main system... makes life lots easier! -

was at the spot last week and noticed how nice the bp clean up has left it. besides the federal funds to build up deer island(which is impressive!), the spot has been combed over more than donald trump's head...all the concrete and most of the old oyster shells have been removed from where we launch/land. here is the before and after shots:
both shots were at low tide with the after shot even lower. looks like a great start to the new season!

yeah rob, i saw ya! we had a honking good time yesterday...sans tearing my freshly restored jib and losing my trusty old leatherman, it was ripping out there! we were trapping out with the main only, launched at the spot and almost beat the cars to osyc! ahh...something magical(and expensive) about steady 20kt winds. first day out and was a bit rusty(see torn jib and lost leatherman).
talked to glenn and he told me about the horn trip...sounds great! just have to sew up a jib...

Golfdad.... please join us.... we're leaving OSYC beach Sat morning... hopefully around 9, but more likely 10:30ish....
We have 2 boats going that are somewhat looking for crew (mine - H18) and a fellow sailor on an H-16.
Plan is just sail to the island... chill.... fish, explore, listen to some music... etc. The ranger will be on the island that weekend, already confirmed and we have her cell#. We'll file float plans at OSYC. 2 of the H-18s have commitments Sunday evening, so at least we are planning on a morning departure from Horn back to the mainland... This gets us back in time, and avoids the bigger afternoon winds... I'm not fond of out in the wide open sound, nor so w/a loaded boat....
you can e-mail me your real name and cell number, etc for more at w o b e s a n -AT- yahoo.com
hope you can make it.
