Stephen Squirrell (6594km): What a top day :) couldn't go antwhere fast like Southend or Wells as we had family round for tea :) and as I can't face our local gusty puddle - Alton, I went to Levington even though there was a midday low water. The day started well when I saw loads of Waxwings really close on the link road between Trimley and Levington !!!! I arrived at Levington Marina at approx 10:30 with the water level already fairly low and the shortboard option is out of the question as staying upwind would have been difficult with wind and tide in the same direction so took a chance with 8.5 on the longboard. I sailed out of the flat water marina entrance and headed toward Felixstowe dock and the beat over to Shotely Marina and cheched the gps and had made 29 kts - I later learned I did nearly 25 kt mile run - not bad for a really heavy longboard with a broken fin box !!! The nice thing about the raceboard is you can put the plate down and get back :) there were some mega gusts but I managed to hang on. I improved my max on the next run but then as hard as I tried couldn't get to 30 kts !!! but I was out sailiong onstop for well over three hours and didn't get cold at all - good old big board - no falling in :) I packed up nearly an hour after the tide had turned as it started to chop up even more and I was knackered !!! Then on the way home the waxwings were there in force and I parked and got really close with the camera - sadly I ran out of battery :( Then home for a quick shower and then a top evening with my sister and two of her kids and our favourite Aunt :) - so a great days sailing in the sunshine :) | ||||||||||||||||||
