Top afternoon down at Sandringham! Started out on the 5.3 wave sail and recorded some 27's but couldn't go faster. Then I changed up to the 6.2 knowing I'd be badly overpowered out in the channel, where it was gusting a good 5-10kts faster than behind the sandbar. While the water was still flat I got several readings over 30kts and a peak of 32.8 - that was pretty exciting! Sadly not quite enough to get the 5x10s average above 30 too. Can't wait for my helmet to arrive - I'm sure the thought of head hitting mast/boom kept me from pushing it harder...
