For good reasons... Just do a little research on this forum about Sherman island on a north wind...

I did some research and didn't find anything... why don't you recommend Sherman on a North wind?

Thanks!
Too gusty.

Based on the light wind I rigged a 17m. I pumped it up, then got the wetsuit on. By the time I was out on the water I was overpowered. Still had a great session, but it sure did pick up, as soon as my board hit the water.

Came to upper launch 3rd ave by about 2:30 and seen people packing up, went out in a bit on 12m and strapless, had about 15 min to fight in a cove when wind picked up, a blast after that till 5:30p. See you all in a week or less :)
Good-bye... and hello... as always!
