First session of the year

Very choppy early on, still a bit cold on my hands, but still a good session!

Beautiful day in Cornwall, and a great forecast with west winds up to 35knots and a decent low tide.

As it turned out the wind did not really show, and I had an extremely frustrating hour and a bit with hardly enough wind to sail. The wind when it finally came through was ok, not too strong but a few gusts here and there but very patchy and difficult to get any runs since the South to North Course was running out into rolling swell which was dangerous to sail into at full tilt. Would have been really good if the wind had come an hour earlier since the course was a lot better then. (7m probably would have been better too but you gotta rig for the forecast)

Anyway great to see everyone and get a sail in the sun with reasonable water temps.

Got home to find my wife had cooked a great dinner and apple crumble for pudding.... Perfect

So nice to be on the water again, it sure feels like more than 4 weeks since my last sail.

Had a nice sail with Mike G in the afternoon, more wind to come this week hopefully. 

Easy like Sunday morning.

A very chilled sail with 6.3 on isonic 97.

Lovely combo.

Where were all the pirates?
