3580 days ago 1 categories Wollumboula Lake, NSW, AU 14-22 kts wind over the course of the afternoon.Aaaah, great to get out after night shift, it makes it all worth while! The afternoon started pretty quietly, I rigged my Sailworks Retro 5.5, as the breeze was pretty good, hit the water and the wind dropped down by about 5kts :-((.
Still, I thought, I'm here with a whole car load of sails from a 4.2 Hucker up to a 7.4 X-T Racing, so I rigged a 6.5m Retro, same board and fin (JP Single Fin Thruster with a 22 cm weedie) and hit it hard...I'm trying to crack 1000km before the end of summer! (Yeah, I know you've all got thousands and thousands!!!) Obviously, once that sail was rigged the wind started to build again.....
So that was it, Keith came down and used both his CA and JP speed boards and we're only a few knots apart I think (and several thousand Km's).
Thanks for a great afternoon Keith, it's allways good to sail with you.
Wednesday could be on for anyone that's keen!
