Quick dash to Sandy Point in the afternoon with deadline to make it home for in the evening.  Knew I had only 1hr 15 mins to sail.  Walking back from each run meant I only had time for 5 runs so they all needed to count.  Was wishing I could make 6 or 7 to make a new PB but to be honest I was fairly exhausted by the time I left after walking with weight etc..  Obviously not match fit..  If the second run hadn't been in a bit of a lull with 38 ten second then I would have been pushing PB territory..  d'oh. 

Shelby was ripping past, Hamma was having fun and Hardie was screaming with delight as he went down the run!!  Not sure if anyone else turned up. 

Awesome fun - changes I've made to setup since last time in May have helped sail felt better.  iSonic 50, TM45v7, Stealth 5.5m

Mega rain on the way down,then when I got there Hamma and Hardies big smiles must have brought the sun outTongue out

Straight into 20-25 WSW to low tide(a couple of hours) and then maybe sniffin' 30 in the squalls for another hour or so.

The key to my day was the raked 23.5 assy fin I grabbed off Slowie,It's total GOLD MaayteCool

Here come the Pit Crew!

Nice numbers John - I take it from the fact you were on 5.5 that it was pretty windy today?

great effort John, as always the wind turns up after the event. Glad you were there to use it.

Yeh it was windy - seemed to be getting windier just at the end before I left.  Shelby and possibly Daffy (if he got there later) may have gone a fair bit faster but tide was on way in so maybe not...  BUT it has to be said - my scale of what is windy has increased since Spotty's Sunday - you were out in it and I was not because 5.5m is my smallest and seemed just too much to contemplate that day.

Any day I can get the iSonic 50 going has to be pretty windy and I only had one false start today - some great acceleration coming out of the dunes...Cool

I wonder how Hardie went
