In one the lowest tides I've seen at Ashby beach today winds were blowing between 10-15 onshore, but still made for an excellent session on a 17. I was all alone and seconds away from self launching when Kaz showed up, launched me and hung out for a bit. If Alameda is dead and Pt. Iz is light, this makes for an ideal spot during a low tide, but you *must* be able to stay upwind.
Maybe I'll see someone else there tomorrow afternoon if the winds blowing.
Later,
Ollie

Ashby today
Anyone going to Berkeley today? Winds are picking up and we have a negative tide (low) at 4:30pm.
Any chance someone else can make it today?

Ashby 5:30 PM
After reading on the warm windless beach for a while I got a 20 min ride on my 16M. It was about 20 mph for a short while!
It was frustrating watching the windsurfers ripping over at the Berkeley Marina most of the afternoon. I wish there was a place to launch there.
