Primbee, NSW, AU. Westerly up to about 18 knots - quite patchy. No weed to speak of but a few floating logs!

I rigged for the forecast which didn't really happen, so I was bit underpowered for most of the time. A lot of people out - and the water wasn't too choppy. I think the best water was down at the Windang end.

The fin was a bit small for the patchy wind, but felt better in the bearaway gusts.

7.2RSR,  56cm wide custom slalom Chester, 21cm custom weed fin.

Late afternoon sail till dark. The westerly slowly filled in up near the caravan park. Gusts up to 22kts. A few good powered up runs but still wanted more. Should be plenty more wind tomorrow.  A real buz bearing away in almost darkness.

Primbee.  Fanatic Falcon 104, Gaastra Matrix RAF 7.5, Makani Hahalua 33cm weed fin.

Very enjoyable day.  Not super strong winds but just right for the 7.5 all day.  Wasted a bit of time at the start on a 25cm weed fin -far too small for the board, but then much happier on the 33cm weedy.  Not a particularly fast sail or fin combo, but nice to simply be planing the vast majority of the time - last couple of times at Primbee I've left myself underpowered. 

Also nice to get off the water without breaking anything - have had a bad run of late up until today.
