Kyeemagh, NSW, AU || 18-25kt SSW || Exocet RS6, 7.7 Venom, 46 Select

Fresh to strong southerly, nice and consistant. Making it all the way to the River from Bestic wasn't part of the original plan, but after 3 or 4 runs of heading upwind with suprising ease, it became the goal. Heaps of smooth stuff along the way. The only draw back was that I failed to notify any team mates of a houdini act and by the time I got back there was an informal search party. Sorry guys! Really appreciate the efforts of Barks, George and Remi for all keeping an eye out for me, even though all was fine. Will definitely try to think ahead next time about alternative routes Sealed.

Kyeemagh, NSW, AU. Gusty 18 to 25 kn Southerly/SW wind. Isonic 104L with NP H2 7.7m. Started w/ larger 43cm fin then changed down to 40cm G10 which worked better. Struggld to really get in the groove tody but great fun and more wind than expected.

Quick 50k session, perhaps nailed the peak wind! And one of my best runs was sailing into a freakin rainbow! 

After Adrian, Conan and Ken stopped as the wind dropped, I stayed out, and caught a few gusts in a sun shower. As the session evolved the massive rainbow drifted closer and closer until the end of it was up along the other side of the sandbar as I made it down a speed run, with the bottom edge of the rainbow 'bleeding' out towards me. EPIC! No gold, no unicorns. Cool

Made it down to George's River, rigged the 7.0 TRXI and my new to me Excocet RS4 111L which was a bit big in some of the chop, but great when the holes arrived after the rainbow. 36cm fin.ERD? 

Good times. Cold, Wet, Fun.

Exocet RS4 - Loftsails 7.8  -39 fin

Called it a day when the tendon snapped on the way to Kurnell with Max...

IS117 TRX7.7  Volt 42 well this was way to big for the chop. 

IS107 TRX7.0  Vmax 37 was much better with plenty of hair raising runs without any major dramas.

Great turn out of DD's and others making the most of a top day.

RS3/Koncept 7.5 & 6.6/ Sonntag 35 also 1 run with Kode94 & Koncept 6.6

First overpowered on the 7.5, then overwhelmed by the chop, a lot of swimming, also it was cold , rained and my gps got waterlogged. An average day windsurfing is never boring Smile

Andrew, that is an EPIC run! I thought about doing the opposite, and sailing down to you guys, but obviously didn't! I do think we take it a bit easy and don't go for better adventure sails. Good inspiration for another time!
