25 knots out of nowhere. 18-20 rigging up and 25 by the time I got on the water! Need to get back some dutch courage as overpowered on the 7M and didnt quite have the guts to fully nail it over the chop. Still having trouble with front feet coming out of the footstraps - need to research solutions..
Out with Shane and Trev that were nicely lit up on their 4M and saw Vando heading out for some fun bump and jump. Good to be back on the SE - love a good SE and the swells

1220 days ago 1 categories Brilliant! Another brilliant sailing day. South Easterly wind change came in stronger than forecast. By midday the wind was 20 Knots plus just after the turn of the ebb tide. Set out to practice my U -turns today using the U-Vando technique, and seems to have paid off. Out with Ben (who rigged his NP 7.0m2) followed later by Nick Wood on a 5.5NCX , Vando (4.7Loft), Trevor B (4.0), and Mark A (6.x Loft). Wind stayed in strong for 4 hours. Trevor B measured 23 knots+ around 3pm. Nick and Vando well out past the lead beacons both enjoying the rolling waves. Only out for a little over an hour today as the quad muscles were burning from yesterday's hammering in the early morning PT session. Another great day all up.
