Stansbury SA CA SL62 31 LeadingEdge Weed 6.6 KA Koncept. What a blast.Tongue out Had a great sail, back on the home turf with Jeff & Pete.

Low tide on the flater water, the wind was a bit light but filled in as the tide came in & the water got ruff. Was just great to be back on the water. 1st sail for the month! Didn't realise how much I mised and enjoyed sailing. It was only 12 daysSurprised

Bit of a stuggle early was about 15 -20 then picked up a bit at the end of the day.Still a underdone but nice to have some flat water and try the new sail.Think I over down hauled but felt nice for its fist sail.But what about Ricky,I rigged the 5.5 and put him on the speed board and he had a 42.5 on the screen.And smashed all his PBs.He will post when we get home.

What a great trip to Lake George. My aim was to see if I could crack 40 knots and it did take me quite a while. I sold my RS 5.8 and updated it with Anthonys EVO 3 5.5, Anthony rigged the sail for me and kindly lent me his JP 49 speed board for the day. I had only previously had a handful of rides on a speed board and I didnt know how it would go. The board and sail combo felt amazing. To start with the wind was only moderate and every time I tried to reach downwind there was no wind in the sail and I wondered if I was going too far downwind , so I was only doing 38 to 39 knots. Eventually I did a 40.17  on the screen and I was over the moon. The wind picked up that little bit more and the combo really started to work. I then done a 40.59, 41.929 followed by a 42.5 which I really couldnt believe. Even at these speeds it felt so controllable and it still felt like I needed more wind.

I really didnt think I was capable of these speeds and I am sure that I wouldnt have done them without the help from Anthony, thanks for the lend of the gear and concratulations on your PBS.

Sailed with Richard and Pete yesterday but forgot to switch the GPS off until halfway home, so no posting. Pete ran into the wire between the posts on the oyster leases and came to a dead stop falling through his sail in two placesCry, no fin damage and he wasn`t hurt (lucky). Richard gave me a shot on the CA62 KA6.6 and it was quite a loose feel compared to the on rails feel of the F2. Richard and me could be at LG later this week to have a go on the flat waterWink. Can`t wait .

You will love LG Jeff.  You can delete the section of your track where you left the gps on in the car - what software are you using?
