Coodanup, WA, AU

7.1m ka, 98 manta, 30cm meweedie. Got to Australind with Shano and prevaricated on a plan of attack, one where both of us would survive the outcome. For some stupid reason I rigged the 7.1 which was due to the small voice in my head. Have to stop feeding him alcohol. This may have been because of the one moment where, briefly, the wind dropped enough for the chop to look as if it was reasonable. This lasted long enough for both of us to get going, but short enough to realise the error of judgement. Trying to keep the board on the water in the squalls was, well, interesting.

Still, a good learning experience, and Jiminy Cricket can go $uck himself.

sailed the pond with stroppo wind was there for only a few short minutes while there was a squall where i was so over powered that i got flattened  then there was nothing so had a few minutes laying in the water trying to get going but just floated down the pond till the next short gust.think i spent more time walking and laying in the water than sailing.but good to get out on the water
