Well all I've got to say to that is "Squeak, Squeak" The wind was too strong too light, too broad too square, and just once it was just right , My mast base tendon came apart after first run heading back to green buoy, nice long swim, wind was wsw but mostly west, then sw at the end. It ranged from 10 to 40kts, THE FEELING I experienced was one minute sail is too big, next sail is too small and was like that for 2i/2 hours. I could've rigged 5 sails (7m 6.3m 5.8m 5.5m and 5.0m) and all wouldve been good at one stage. The tide came rushing in and that was it. You've got to give a massive credit to the Pit Crew who have mastered this place, Daffy, Kato, Spotty, Matt, Mr Love et al, wow what great sailors they are I feel totally inadequate for this place

Early AM session with Daffy, we had a pretty rough night here, rain and wind.
Started N side of the Spit on the 47, after 2 run already my forearms was sore and hard as and could not pushed the end run !!, then moved to S side wiz the slam for some fun and ease on the weed bank, and some run the long the shore to the top where the others were.. great session all together 
Surprised in good for that direction, I though would be crap, but it wasnt. We timed it very well, no rain, even got the sun at the end,
Happy Days
