Budgewoi Lake, NSW, AU 6.6 tr9, RS2, muliple fins

started out on the 19 delta and just kept spining out. top speed 31.5

use a fin i made 21.5cm 50 deg thick profile first run 37.5

tried a 23 cm 45 deg slim was ok but a bit small for the slalom board more suited to speed could feel the fin hiting the weed on the botom but never caught any. did 35.5 on this.

went back to the 21.5 and got another run over 37 just had to get that gust at the right time.

was under done big time with the 6.6 just arm chair sailing but great to sail with every one heaps out. realy wanted to get 25 knots so i could get on the speed board but didnt get enough wind to get on it.

Great afternoon of well powered formula racing at the club today.  Top speed was a scary bearaway downwind from the top mark into a big gust.  Great to see lots of guys out.

Budgewoi Lake, NSW, AU       happy with the speed on the 7,9 , pretty much over the delta fins , spinning out big time 

Nice to get out but really busy on the water.

A windy race day at Marmong. Glad I chose 10.0. Very stenuous afternoons racing. Even Nathan had a 10.0 up.

Naish 95SP then Fanatic Falcon 79 (Select 29 gps fin) both with Maui TR9 5.9.

The last time I used a sail less than 6.0 was on 5-Jan-2014. So it was pretty windy at Coal Point today. Hugh rigged his 6.2, so 5.9 sounded about right for me. As it was the first time on this sail the first few runs were terrible, my harness lines were way to short (24). Came back in and fitted some adjustable ones - much better. It was also my first time on my repaired (by me - for the third time) carbon boom, so I was half expecting a break. As it turned out I was not the one breaking stuff. Rus got in early by breaking his mast just as he stepped in the water, then Cluffy snapped his close to Coal Point and had to be towed all the way back to Swansea.

Lots of chop everywhere today, only one very small patch of flat water. But a lot of fun.

Coal Point, NSW, AU I am still not uploading my Alpha 500 details. The information is on the real speed program but disappears when I open KA 72. Needs more research.

186 Formula, VMG 79, 8.5 Retro

Marmong Point, NSW, AU Easterly 12-18 +. Went out with10.0 m but two minutes each-way was enough for me. A year off sailing in good breeze was a good reminder of my fitness. i changed down to 7.6 to catch the last of the raceing. Pity I didnt gig it right this time but it will right to go on the next 18 knotter.

formula 159, deb 70, 17s, maui tr7 7.6 m.
