Parsley, Sage Rosemary & Thyme Thursday Surf & Culture Report
Lost Boys & Co...
With all that balsa, we thought a tailblock would be a good idea. Ché, glues on this perfect wooden sandwich before shaping it to the proper contours... Cory's going to rout out the hole left from the after-market fin box, so we can glue a bamboo plug before putting on the skeg...
All the leaves are brown and the sky is gray, with some sun poking in and out of the clouds... Geez, we have to stop listening to the Mama's and Papa's when doing the report! 15 miles visibility in most directions. Winds were calm at checkout and the sea surface was glassy. The air temp was 59.2° and the water is 63.9°. High tide at 9:11am +6.5' and low tide will follow at 3:41pm -0.5'. A generous 7' swing, dropping a foot an hour after 9am. The buoy is reading a deep SW swell out of 218° at 2.3'. We're calling it 2' and breaking right on shore, floating through the high tide. Watch it in case the lowering tide opens the gates...
LoLa sent us this link to see just how lame we are. You only have 8 seconds to answer each question - so don't dawdle!

Wow, Prof, awesome sunset shot! IS it legit? I mean you actually caught the green flash? Where were you when you took the pic?

(NO!, we tweaked it with our photo-shop ap. The point I was trying to make was that it was only 5% off from the original values, so I imagined that it might be possible for the atmosphere to create the same sort of phenomenon. We continue to try and capture the effect, at some considerable cost to our retinas... Ed.)
