More wind would have been better and less chop. ahh well. I got one run where the gust followed me down the bank, other than that patchy as hell.

Cheers for the fin pierre, would have been perfect had the conditions been playing our game.

Waited for the right tide and as soon as it got a bit decent i managed to get one run in to test try how deep is the water and it was honking but tooo choppy and managed to pull of a 37.8kts and sussed out where to bare off so went back for the next run and magically the wind died and got really gusty , i could not believe that , the whole day the wind was cranking and i mean really cranking.

 

So we waited and waited but it just did not want to play managed to catch a gust out of no where and cracked a 41 i felt i was accelerating even faster but did not know how deep it was in front of me so i didnt want to risk it to push it further DAMMMMM....Yell.

So we called it quits couldnt wait any  longer and decided to go home but as the bar got covered then the stupid wind picked up again and i couldnt be bothered to rig again.

Was totally underpowered on the small kit but managed to pullsome numbers in..

Yeah haggar managed tha one run but had to bare off into the chop 3/4 of the way down , richard said i was more out of the water than on it , it gets a bit risky like that.

But i have full confindence on the locky 23cm semmi it really holds its ground in the messy stuff..

Hopefully more higher 40s will come this year if the NE play along , but really aiming for a good 40+ 5by 10sec that will be satisfaction...

Great 2 sec peak Pierre in probably less than 10 inches of water. That scares me that bank in a Westerly. Still wish I turned up but feel crap after too many days sailing in rain. Pray for some warm North EasterliesCool

I bet Vando will be spewing he missed out today.
