10-20kts ENE - NE Peel st Budgewoi Lake, NSW, AU

 7m OD - 87ltre isonic- 24cms FF

Glad I rigged a bit big. It was most consistent when I first went out ( only Pugs & I) but still not enough to get a powered up bearaway. Happy with my gybing with the big sail. the best I've done with it recently but it didn't reflect in the alpha..tha alpha was out in the small chop..

 Came in for a rest when everyone else went out . Thought about rigging down but it had done it's usual thing and swung more NE so more in the chop and less in the flats and patchier..Lake was up a bit which was nice as i wasn't worried about hitting bottom. Found out that if I went a lot higher than usual the wind was better so I might try that next time. By the time I'd worked it out it was over..

Had issues with the batten below the boom dragging in the water on the bearaways..??? I had the mast track a fair way back so  I moved it forward which helped a bit but it was still catching?

Pugs , Pete , me then Glynn , Froth , Mick , Milsy ,Greg,Wayne , Matt , youngens , Andy from QLD and family, Larko and many more..

Isonic 90 and 7.0, Not much wind on offer today despite the forecast. Decided to work on Alphas.  Super flat conditions and a few gusts, but took a while to line up a strong gust to gybe in. It's a real battle to stay within the 50 metres.

 

32,7 kts on the way in and over 28 on the return, the gybe itself wasn't anything special

Everybody was there today, counted 20 on the water.
