George (32558km):
1041 days ago Sanctuary Point - Palm beach, NSW, AU ||12-20 NE
Naish Micro 131/ Koncept 5.8/ 1150 front wing with long fuse
Started windy, after 2 runs went strapless and it felt a lot safer and easier to jibe. Then the wind dropped, but enough to keep going all the time, very relaxing only me in the bay.

AlfaMale (19018km):
1041 days ago 2 categories   Inspired by Remi I sailed up to Kyeemagh from Kurnell leavig Baz behind.... did a few runs with Jules at the runway then headed back as the wind felt a bit light... and big clouds were rolling in. I didn't want to get stuck 6km from home. I think Remi had the same idea as we both headed back about the same time.
- FMX 91
- SkyBladee 7.0
- F4 337cm
I think I could feel the drag from smallest shim and after removed it felt a bit freeer. But best speeds were earlier so who knows.
Bit light wind early on around 4PM for my setup but then it kicked in, and by 6:30 I was done.
I do prefer the higher clew setting on my skyblade sail.
Good to see Baz after so long not sailing Kurnell... and good to see Remi back on the water :)

Jules (6892km):
1041 days ago 1 categories  Kyeemagh, NSW, AU. Gusty up and down NE'er. Times gusting over 23kn, other times 12-14kn. JP Hydrofoil 135, GTR 650/800/255-2/-0,5, NP H2 Racing 6.6m. Rigged based on seeing whitecaps on arrival but only gpt a couple of solid runs in and the wond dropped. Changed to the 800 wing, which of course brought the wind back. Toughed it out for a while then when the whotecaps returned, changed back to the 650 which of course killed it dead within 15 minutes! Good to see Remi back on the water, visiting from Kurnell with Berowne. Good turn out with Dieter ion the wing, Fez, Walt and the boys, a late session from Justin on the foil (with a 10m!!) and many wingdings. Challenging day for Bruce, snapping a fibreglass fin clean off down at the runway, sailing back with the harness through the rear strap.
