Great conditions windwise for my 2012 Loft 6.3 Racing Blade and 1000W Sabfoil front wing for a while but I think the Queen Mary must have started doing laps along  Warners Bay  because there ended up being constant knee high corrugation of the water apart from normal wind chop in a different direction which made sitting on or around 20 knots very sketchy for someone of my ability. So I aborted the session early.

Coal Point, NSW, AU 4.7 Taka 1250 Flow. Great session. Plenty out. Happy with the numbers

 5- 17kts E Coal Point, NSW, AU- lumpy as with jetski , yacht , boat wake - yuck

7.2m moto - WT64 ( 112ltres) - 35cms tectonics weed demon

 then WT57 ( 90ltres) - 28cms WT weedy

My expectations were too high. I was itching to have a few fun runs down past the point . Huh! 

The forecast was for 15-20kts so I was a bit worried putting the 7.2m up especially the Moto with it's wide luff tube..I didn't think it was that windy so used the big board at 1st. Horrible! 

I went across to the caravan park area to adjust stuff and there were 6 jetskis roaring around doing figure 8s in the patchy area where I was trying not to fall in..then leftover boat wake made for smashing into the cross chop. Even the WT's couldn't cope. I couldn't power on and it was horrible..

 All the stats are from that run. I came in and swapped to the 90 knowing it would be too small for the lulls . I can't uphaulthat combo so I was worried about falling in and not having enough to get going..I did a plod above the point but it didn't get any better and had died to a patchy 5 - 15kts..

 I could feel my PLB bouncing around on my back and assumed it had fallen off and was on the end of it's leash. I wasn't game to stop as there wasn't much wind but an unexpected lull got me anyway. 

I would have been ok except I spent some time sussing out the PLB ( it was ok) but the sail had filled with water and the wind wasn't very strong.

 I had trouble getting it out of the water due to the weight and lack of wind. I even considered floating in and walking back. I eventually got going.

 The lovely bearaway wasn't to happen as it was only 12kts..eventually I got going and had a couple of 100ms which were fun.

 I muffed the gybe ( too b lumpy and light) . I'll say one thng , I'm getting better at getting onto the sail to keep it up out of the water..

 Might have been ok if I had gone out on the small board at 1st when the wind was up and then swapped to the bigger one when it died and the waterstate was a bit better..

 It's all easy in retrospect..

 Remind me to avoid the lake when it's overrun by kids on jetskis and boats.. ugh!

 Andrew and Nic on wings , Tony on the windfoil , me on fin and other wingers.
