Third sail in the last couple of weeks but the first I could record after drowning my GT31.Today was my first use of my Canmore which worked well through KA 72. Very up and down sail with the low volume board. At one stage was trying to water start for maybe 20 minutes but enjoying being out on the water again.

Convinced Rissoles (brother) and Hargs (dirty kiter) to come for a sail so had to rig & sort their shit out first.  Wind was building but quickly died and was going to call it quits without dipping my toe in the water but looked out wide and it seemed to be picking up.  Took a chance and got lucky for half an hour or so.  First sail in about a month too and first real hit out with the old switchblade (the 7.8 RBlade has seen better days) - quiet happy with it but just doesn't have the same upper oomph the Blades exhibit.  Boardies and rashie only on a cracking saturday arvo.

dinner is on the table ....back later

made the trip to port with Hoppy Bob .....no sailors around when we arrived so set up and started sailing about 1:45pm.

maybe I was on the water for about an hour before I was joined by Ian,James,Andrew,Edd,Sharon, Billy and Alan from Brisvagas.

Wind direction and strength was good although a little rough. Edd's apprentice/wing man Andrew is certainly improving under sensi

Edds watchfull eye.

Congratulations to Ian and Eddy on their PB'S....GREAT session this afternoon....I think all had a great time.

First up, huge congrats to Freddy, Ian and Ed for there respective PB's today - well done lads. 

The Guns - GI - unloaded again. Great speeds from Cam and Kel. Attainment befitting only a few. 

Great day for it. Wind some where in the range of 23-27, me thinks. Some really huge rolling waves out the back and rough to boot in between. Really struggled to get comfortable today. The old ankle slaps are still nerving me up and as a result spent way to much time going up wind. Got to grow a set I think. Cant go round doin that all me life.

On the few times I headed down wind, it was decidely spreckle clentching and on two occasions the front end buried in, causing all sorts of vial expletives to be released.

Great day to catch up with the mountain men/women - Sharon, James and Ian and Ed, Andrew , Fred, Sir Hoppy Bob and my new found mate Allan who was in town holidaying.
