5-12kts with occ patches 15-20kts SW Buff Pt Budgewoi Lake, NSW, AU level 0.52

 6m M2 OD - 80ltre iso- 18cm tribal delta

When I first went out I wished I had the 7.5m - 111ltre..probably would have been better with a 7m on the 90ltre but the 80 was nice in the few stronger patches we got. Lots of flatwater when there wasn't any wind but it soon disappeared in the gusts. There were some flat patches amongst the bergs but they were hard to see at times and even harder to get a decent gust in.

 Scored one decent gust but the rest were underdone. Still some fun moments although I still have no energy due to the headcold. Undecided

 It was cold . The first time my feet have gone numb this season. 

 I wanted to get a sail as I was going to the dr after  to get a  biopsy and I can't sail for 10 days! Argh!!!Wink

 Just me then Pete and Norm from 7th and later Milsy , Glynn and Matt.

I've been having an occasional issue with the boom cams on my OD sticking so I  experimented a bit with downhaul today.  Found out they just need heaps ( roughly to specs but really hauled down.

I thought the leech was too floppy ( all the way to the boom) but it fixed them and they rotate great.Smile

Even took some phone pics for reference in case my seniors brain forgets..Laughing
