As predicted, winds have kicked up starting warm and then bringing in chilly air from the north. In addition to mangling up a promising 20s west swell, they set at least one boat adrift that was moored near Stearns Wharf. Sadly, search and rescue operations are currently underway for the owner of the boat who tried to intercept it near Padaro Lane.
