anyhoo, another good day on the water if a touch underdone ( 100lt, 34cm, 6.7m)

Great end to a great camping trip with carl. Not much sailing done as wind was too light. Sure did enjoy those baby wipes though :-). Today sailed the 160 bic. Wind light as shit again. Sore arms from 3 days of pumping in light wind:-(   had a ball though

Last day of road trip with Sam to Lake George.  After the last 2 days of light wind and a similar forecast at Lake George we headed off early in the morning for our local Boggy lake. We arrived to 13 to 18 knots and a good turnout.  Used the 7m loft blade, 113 fanatic falcon and Black Project R375 fin.  Started out well powered, dropped back in the middle of the session and was powered at the end.  Still a little holey and gusty at times but definately the best of the 3 daysSmile

Thanks again for taking me Sam - great road trip as usual - laughs, drinking, mucking around, using baby wipes (slipped this is one for Kimba) and the usual shit talking that we are best atLaughing.  Or you areWink.  Maybe we both areSmile.   I am sure the next one will be as good or even better with Lake George firing - CAN'T WAIT...  

Boggy lake - 13 - 18 knots.

Fanatic Falcon 113 / 7m loft blade and Black Project R375.

Trousers for yesterday I was running bigger than normal fin. Also run upper clew eyelet on sail which is supposed to help earlier planing...who knowsUndecided I very rarely change eyelet....

 

Karl good to see Mark out at Boggy. If he made the effort where's your dad???? Tell your dad its time he dusted of the cobwebs on his gear and get it wet and whilst doing that come out for a sail!!!

Well done on the PB trousers...

Carl and Sam wind didn't happen again just keeps staying 8 to 10 SSW and not kicking into a SE seabreeze. looks the same crap for a few days yet.

was getting flat though hey. looks good for later.

 

Check seabreeze gps forum as Kimba had a site up for the event.
