Very choppy and wavy in the middle of the lake, but found some flat water at the usual spot at the eastern end of the lake. Cold today without the sun ,but still good fun.Hopefully more wind tomorrow.

99L Falcon and 6.7m Hellcat, 30cm FO Weedy
Sailed with Phil, Steve and Daniel
First time on this gear. Hellcat fresh out of the bag and packaging rigs super easy, and it gybes super easy too. 99 Falcon is so easy to sail compared to the 113 and planes and lifts so quick too. I only had an hour to sail today as I had to get back to work - shame, the mud bank had some reasonably clear / flattish water - I wish I had some more time to do a few more runs and dial in to the new gear. Funnily enough the run that I THINK I got the PB on was in a choppy section of water - the 99 eats chop better that the 113!
GPS max speed said 38.27kn, I got pretty excited as it is so hard to tell how fast you are going when you hit the flat on the mud bank. I wasnt super powered up so I thought it was too good to be true. Steve said it would have been a 1 second spike, which disappointingly I found out it was when I logged in and got the 2 sec average. Regardless, very happy with scores and the new gear - runs well.
Looking forward to using it again tomorrow when I will have more time. Hope you Forster guys get up here - forecast is swinging back round to SW for tomorrow which is pretty much awesome for the bank.......will be great to have a big bunch of the team together for a sesh.
