According to the weather links showing gusts to 25 MPH, it appears I
was off around 15 knots. But, there is quite strong funnel effect
between Execution Rocks and Hart Island and I do think that gusts did
touch on 30 knots a few times.

In any case, Joe, Dave and Thomas can send me their addresses so I can
mail them a week's worth of Crow to eat!!!!


BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA! Dave claimed 5 knots!!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

It's so funny seeing the weekend warrior claim he was sailing in 30 kt
winds.. when the facts show the average wind speed was around 13 kts.

13kt's and he's doubled reefed taking pictures like this to fool
himself.

I bet he's screaming at the top of his lungs... cursing King Nepture
for exposing him to the raging seas.

Can Joe read? Can he sail???
Here are the actual conditions published for all to see!

5:56 PM 75.0 °F 63.0 °F 66% 30.01 in 10.0 miles SSW 17.3 mph
23.0 mph N/A Clear

Where's the 13 knots, Joe??? Huh? What? We can't hear you!!!! We
started sailing in late afternoon when winds started to build. 17.3 -
23 MPH is reefing conditiions for a light fast cruiser.
You can't even read the numbers and you have no idea how a sailboat
works. AND THIS PROVED IT!!! Keep posting, Joe. You actually leap out
to catch each egg I throw right between the eyes!!!!

WHOOOOO HOOOOO! STOMP!!!

Default kts = mph

Does 23 mph equal 30 kts wind speed? what's the formula to
arrive at these figures?
