JP Slalom V6 112, NP RSS IV 7.8, Vector Canefire 40

Got down at 4:00pm after looking at the wind and the forecasts and thought I would only need a 7.8 and the 2 big boards.

Big mistake, some really nice gusts coming through and the gear was a little big.

The new MK IV is brilliant didn't let go in the gusts and didn't chuck me around either, really stable and a pleasure to use.

Jesper the Vector 40 is fantastic, just hung in like glue, went fast when I wanted and pointed really well, awesome fin, on a down wind run I started to spin out, a little shallow in places for the 40, just pulled it back and bang rock solid.

Then jumped on the JP SLW90 at about 6:00pm, went for a spin on the flat water after watching SS belting around really nice sail.

Really like the MK IV, I think it is closer to the race sail this time and easier to handle.

Isonic 105/Canefire 34, Code Red 7.0 at Melville.

A great sail but far too much Christmas food and drink, consumed recently, felt sloppy and fat today should have gone faster cas the conditions were good. Diet comences right after I finish this beer (wihich is the 4th for the evening)......

Hardies, Not the day I was hoping for. Only rigged up the 7.8 which never got powered during the day. Used the RRD 112 and 40 MFC weedy, I was going to try for Nm,s today but only got a few before I collected a solid weed bank, 30knts to 0 instantly. ONly damage was to the board, ( just a flesh wound so I should be able to patch it up OK). Tried one more run on the isonic 86 but the wind was to light.

Hmmm....not a good day on one which promised so much.....

CR7.0; RRD 90; JP 30 (note to self..30 fin too small for this application!) for about 0.75km.....sideslip...crash...broken mast...loooong swim...longer walk!! Thanks to Nilss and Wog for assistance...

Then CR6.1(on only remaining mast) ; RRD 90; Choco 34 (better fin combo)...unfortunately by this time breeze had dropped so was well underpowered ...ah well...shit happens.

Melville Beach, WA,

A tale of two sessions in one

First was  Ios 86 ka 6.6 rokit 30 well powered up on the 66  fanged up to Wally had a few runs with Birdman from the pinnas but the breeze hadn't filled in so the gusts were a bit short still  got a 31 cool .Then back to melville trying for a NM on the way back same story too much up and down pressure , over the next hour the Doctor got his shit together and it started to pump

With the increase  I decided to unlesh the weapon  my new Starboard W49 thanks Nills for makeing me an offer I coun't  refuse    rigged a ka 5.0  and off we go " Yee har " this thing goes and  accelerates  like  the 'Millenium Falcon'  long story short , 35 Kt for one happy Wog

CR6.7, Xfire102, Canfire34. Coal Mine Beach, Walpole. One of the best "soul" sails I have had in a long time. Everything clicked into place and its was good fun exploring the inlet. After underestimating the wind on Monday I rigged bigger than I might have otherwise - got it spot on! The 1hr sneeks into my top 5 Smile
