These are conditions in the month of July*
General wind patterns during the month of July rely mostly on fronts. This venue is tricky and often has "personal puffs and shifts" so you need to keep your eyes out of the boat and sail fast to the shifts. The most common wind strength is around 5 kts. The forecasts on www.wunderground.com are usually correct in this venue about 80% of the time.

The most current I experienced while racing here was around a knot and a half. I am sure there can be more or less depending on tides but current is a definite factor and there is real no place to go for current relief. Also the waves here can tend to be skewed to one tack, and they are big.

good restaurants are common but the food is very expensive almost 10$ for a sandwich.
