 7.5m GT turbo- RS4 ( 111ltres) - 24cm FF

I was hoping for gybe pracise and a few nice runs in glass but it wasn't to be. Forecast was for over 20 but I figured it would  probably closer to 10-15 maybe a bit over so as an optimist  I also rigged the 7m with the 87ltre which never got wet.

 Pete went out and got planing a bit and then came in. I assumed to change fins but he decided it had died and he wouldn't go back out.. I got sucked out . Noone else bothered. Managed to slog up above the pole and there was glass. Not enough wind to get going but I puttered over it.It was still deep enough for the 24 but the weed was right near the surface whereas it's still 10-15cm under a bit lower down.

Hard work . So much easier in the rare times I caught  a gust and I could get in the straps and lay back. My lower back was aching by the end.

 Not really worth the effort although it was nice to see the glass and I suppose I did get a sail in a NE at the ends of April.
