Stansbury, SA, AU SSW 15-25

FF102, GPS6.6, Lessacher duo weedy28.

Arrived at 11 but no wind so waited patiently for a couple of hours with Carl. Richard went out for a tester and floated around for a hour before returning to shore. The wind did come in so out we went for a powered up cuople of hours. Tricky was testing the new 7m sail and Carl was bashing across on the bearaways getting good speed. Came in and swapped to the SXs 90 for a while but was soon worn out so came in and stood on shore watching Carl having a fun. Alpha was dissapointing as some seemed fast but must have been too wide. Richard supplied the beers afterwards to end a good day with Carl and Family.

Rigged big for the conditions not the forcast started out a slog then slowly built to a nice cruze then when it kick in I could not hold down all the power, was happy with the performace sailed the biggest sail & the lightest out there. Pitty I came into shore & out again in my hour

Oh whell could not quite match it with the guys on the samller sails! Finnished out a great session with Hoppy & Carl. Loft RaceingBlade 7, CA101, Lessacher 32 weedie. Happy with the Loft lots of grunt & still managable over powered

A very short gust wet sail buT at least I had my first go on the 2015 Gun Sails torro 6.6 mostly uderpowered so suprise how much low end it had came in whe it started to kick and really piss down thinking the forcast might be right and it would kick in to 25-30 however while I was derigging it settled down to around 20 knots. Only Jacko and I sailing Koshi was setting up his kite when I was leaving. Hopefully tomorrow will get to try out my new gun Sails 8.1m stream.

No wind when arrived. Rigged the 5.5 expecting it to come in. Hung around for awhile then decided to give it ago. Got on the plane once. A cam popped off so came in and decided to rig  the 6.3. Had a few runs then some rain squall's came through. Jumped up to 20 -25+. Well over powered as had rigged quite loose. Getting late and did not want to rig the 5.5 again so decided to call it a day.  Had to choose between Sat or Sun, think I chose the wrong day.

Fun arvo with Tricky and Hoppy.  It looked like we were skunked again till mid arvo the wind kicked nice.  Started on the Fanaitic falcon 113 and 6.6m Hot sails GPS and Gun 29cm weedy and managed a 34.8 peak and then changed to the Patrik 87 that got my peak of the day .

Direction and tide not quite right but had alot of fun.

Thanks again to Hoppy and Tricky for company for the last couple of days and Tricky for the help saving me and helping me with my out of control sail and the after session beers .

Fanatic Falcon 113 / 6.6m Hot Sails Maui GPS / Gun 29cm weedy.

PS edit - 2 out of 10 second runs on 113 - Hour, Alpha and Nautical also on 113.

I need to ride this board more in strong wind to see what it is capable of.....
