Gusty early morning sail on my 97L (60cm) M_OZ custom board and new 6.7m NCX sail. Made the mistake of starting with a Maui Delta...proven out with some bad spinouts as it became choppy. Wind was averaging 14 knots and 20 knot gusts (thanks Decrepit).  A few good runs (once I fitted the Weedspeed fin) and made some changes to the trim under the expert direction of Waricle and Decrepit...guys, I really appreciate your pointers!👍

Lots of improvement from the last sail...but much to go. As Waricle would say...the gear can go much quicker than I can at the moment. 😶

Wind died...de-rigged...wind picked up...typical.

Always enjoy sailing with Waricle, Decrepit and Gloria (Decrepit read the signs and decided not to participate this time)!

Thanks Gloria...the sail helps a lot!!!! I appreciate your nice comments and love the sail you kindly sold me.👍

Sailing is funny...catapults, lulls, silly mistakes...one or two good runs...but it was still...a great day!😁  I guess it is like gambling...you only remember the wins...never the losses.🤣
