Pretty gusty day at karin at one moment ite honking up to 50kts and then down to a couple of knots , so we decided to sit in the car and wait to see whats it goin to do.................

Yes the major gusts did drop down but really gotta alot of holes in the wind man it was a struggling day , managed to catch some short gusts but it just dies of too quick and then somehow you have too compenisate to keep it goin through the minor lulls to get a decent run.

But nothing much to complain about had a good crew today Adi n Brane and i guess u can say we did have fun.

Later the wind changed to a NW and rigged the 7.0 n 90 lit but still there was a lot of patches on n off plaining.

 

CA speed 50 , 5.7 simmer sc , 28cm C3 venom , should have rigged the 6.3 !!!!!

Pierre, you are fast as always. Karin is such a strange place, after few totally constant days you get cinditions this. I wonder where is the catch?

I have't sailed today due to a yesterdays mishap, had to go to emergency late at night but it's ok now, grrrrr...

Hope to catch some major day together.

yeah Adi u will get close thats for sure , but i should have rigged the 6.3 today would have got more consitantcy for the 5 by 10 sec and a touch more on speed , i had to let out my outhaul quite a bit today to get my sail fully bagged on the 5.7 so i can get better runs.

( after few totally constant days you get cinditions this ) marin i dont understand what your trying to say here.....

So i hope your allright mate...

lool Pierre, I meant to say that we had such a great conditions in Karin for few times that we have been there this summer. Strong, constant winds, with no holes, and almost no gusts. And then for last few times, when you and Adi were there, it has been gusty and with lot of holes, so I don't get it. And for today, the forecast was very good.

I am allright now buddy, thx.

Hey you guys! Great results despite the conditions.

I guess we lack some local knowledge to predict the weather conditions in Karin.

But judging from my previous expierience (bad of course), every "bura" that came after the cold front and rainwas too gusty, with a lot of holes and did not really followed the forecast. Several times there was no bura at all (Adi, do you remember last year in Karin?)

 

So I guess we have to wait for the standard anticyclon sunny bura!

 

Cheers!
