lao shi (41082km):
5362 days ago Distance mission on the river. Wind came in about 2 and got on the water at 2.15. Died about 6.15 and had to do a few tacks to get back.
Whole session on the battleship and 7.5 koncept. For once I wasn't overpowered after 40 mins. Covered a fair bit of the river.
Some of the session was at the top of the wind range but overall a great session. Love the way these big board / fin combos can go hard up wind and deep off the wind with the reassurance that you can get home again.
Don't think I have ever seen so many sail craft on the river as today with the resulting horrible chop. Some interesting runs trying to judge whether I could run in front or had to go behind a variety of boats with one or two close calls. Freshwater bay was much better with less boats and much smaller chop. Really had fun out there today. Mission accomplished.
