18-25 knots SW, 6.6 Gaastra, Sonic 100, C3 Sting2 34cm

Totally knackered after 2nd run where in middle of lake gear was blown from hands faster than I could swim for it. Thank god for bouancy vests!! Close to hour swim/drift to shore then slogged to gear further downwind then slow walked back to lanuch site.

Wind moderated so could sail later with 6.6. Water very confused cross chop with very few flattish stretches. Was buggered physically and stopped after every run.

A day to remember lol!!
