spent more time standing around waiting for the gusts to come through than actual sailing.

wind was going between 5 and 30 knots so very interesting trying to sail.

used my f2 sx xl 135 a 33 choco weedy and a 7.0 severne r 2.

Wind was hardly worth bothering with today. It was up and down so I figured I'd rig for the gusts. Trouble is there was very few of them. Hadnt been out on the board for a while,felt very unstable, couldnt get comforable with the 5.8. Got my peak and then got catapulted and broke a harness line (luckily). Changed to my KA Koncept, which felt much better, but didnt really get much wind after that.

Anyone want a Neil Pryde 5.8 RS Race sail?  Its not for me. Selling cheap.

Quick blast with Decrep after being in Perth for the night. Wind was all over the place. Good to finally try the new board/ fin combo. Had a display of 31.78knts. Only got 4 good runs so my 5x10 has suffered.

Great to catch up with Mike and Dot. Thanks for the post sail cuppa MikeCool
