4974 days ago 2 categories   Wow what a great day with the mad bastard, clear blue skies, crystal water, turtles, jumping fish and boardies 
I haven't been to Green Island for so long, too long, so the plan was to just have fun, but hey no one wants to go slower than their mate so I had to lift my game but na got my arse kicked good
We went to Arlington but half way there I thought this is bloody mad, truely, I was getting tired and the water was a mess, just under 14km first run. Once over the reef it was awesome, didn't take long and we lost each other the runs were so long ha, no worries. Cam told me later I was in the wrong spot, oh well. The long runs getting back up wind in the middle was trying but I thought I might improve my hour so I put up with it although I fell on every gybe  After a hour or so I spoted Cam and he was flying over the reef break to head back to Green so I followed. Top day.
Found when I rigged up I have a buggered camber so no tention on the battern, then while sailing the the collar on my boom adjuster kept popping out, wraped it in 100mph tape then all was good. After Cam hit the reef his fin was transfered into a winged keel, didn't slow him up though
