Košljun bay, wind from zero to 35 kt,

For the first time, speed windsurfing in Košljun bay on island Pag. Great company - almost all of Preluka Speedhunterz team, and also Aeolus Speedhunterz team! At first, it looked as the forecast was completly wrong - no wind in the morning. We was considering moving on some other spots (Karin, Šimuni or even Pag), but in the end, wind started in Košljun bay, although changing direction from northeast to even northwest. Strength was from zero to probably 35 knots, very hard to sail comfortably, with lot of floating, diving and swiming. However, during one hour or maybe something more, it becomes clear: Košljun bay is one of the best speedsurfing spots in Croatia! When bora will be at least litlle more constant, I can forsee 40knots barrier will be broken just here! The proof is that almost all from ten or so people acheived more than 30 knots of speed, at least four results around 33 knots, and the man of the day- Jan Winkler with +35 knots! Congratulations Jan! This is really amazing, considering that the day was actualy very bad regarding wind (I certainly did not have a day and could not catch a right gust for speed). What will happen in a good day, we can only imagine!

And, if I may say, it was a pleasure to sail with so many friends! Thank you all, great winds and even better speed numbers, and hope to see you soon on the water!

Great spot and great day with friends, but I had too small combo for this kind of conditions. Managed to do only two planning runs, rest was swimming Tongue out. Hope to visit this spot when the wind is right. It has a great potential.

We finally tested Kosljun bay on Island Pag and I can tell you its the best "bura" speed spot in Croatia so far!

Nice flat water , possible to sail close to the shore...

 

Weather forecast was very optimistic but life is somewhat different..."bura" was weeker then anticipated and there were lot of holes, puffs and lulls...

 

However managed to break the 35 kts barrier and set my new max speed PB at 35.33 KTS!

Looking forward to go back to Kosljun bay with a lot of friends like Today...and see if Adi can break 40 kts! Cool

 

Wind: NE "bura" 15-30 kts
