Wolf In Sheep's Clothing Wednesday Surf & Culture Report

Lost Boys & Co...

Joey:  "You can play a lot better than that!"
Gidget:  "She's pretty good."
J:  "Sloppy bow-work!"
G:  "She's just hurrying it a bit..."
J:  "I think you should show her how it's done!"
G:  "Hmmm, maybe there is room for one more fiddle player in Northern Ireland..."

Hazy sun with 12 miles visibility this morning.  Winds were on-shore by 2.3kts and the sea surface was almost smooth.  The air temperature was 65.0Ëš and the water was (is) 71.2Ëš.  High tide was at 8:23am +3.6' and low tide will be at 1:01pm +2.0'.  We have a SSW swell out of 207Ëš at 3.0'.  It's 2' to 3' and a bit high, but could work later in the morning if the wind stays low...

Hangin' out at the Spaniard in Belfast, Northern Ireland...

Twist & Shout Thursday Surf & Culture Report

Lost Boys & Co... W e talked about how much building is going on in China.  There are so many new bridges across the Yangtze that they haven't named them all yet!  There are between 50 and a hundred going up between Yichang and Chongqing alone.  In our first photo, the bridge and road are so new that the road crosses the bridge and then doesn't go anywhere!  We watched them welding the superstructure in #2 and to our amazement we watched a guy put on a belt with eyes on the hips and get hoisted up a couple of hundred feet to near the top of this tower.  No nets, no additional straps, no hat - just flying there with a portable welding rig, sparks flying.  We actually saw guys spot welding stuff without dark glasses!  There are some tough guys up there!  Dude, you like gotta have a hat... A beautiful morning, with a few big clouds bumping along and 20 miles visibility.  Winds started onshore from the crack and they were light at checkout...

Teach A Fish To Fly Friday Surf & Culture Report

Lost Boys & Co... Wouldn't it be nice to have some surf to report about?  The simple answer is "yes."  But, and it's a big BUT, we're going to forge ahead and give you the particulars anyway.  5 miles visibility and pretty hazy conditions although it looks like the sun is trying to melt the haze.  Winds were offshore by 1 to 3kts. and the sea surface is smooth.  The air temp was 64.5º and the water is 65.8º.  High tide is at 10:14am +5.6' and low tide follows at 4:55pm +0.6' (Maybe good for a walk on the hard sand.  Don't step on a bee.  Been lots of them on the shallow sand.)  SSW swell out of 206º at 2.3' and it was half of that on the beach.  Just to whet your appetite we've included this shot of the Professor in Nicaragua at "Soupbowls", or "Chicken Soup", or "Noodles".  They were all lefts... Some of you know that the Professor has sparred with some health issues recently.  He submitted this (Attachment) t...
