Albany, WA, AU

Nice to see a 40 been a while, cold and brutal conditions today with a heap of South in the wind. Took off from Rushi but probably would have been better from Lilacs as the return run ro Rushi side was brutal with the board being lifted. Fastest runs on Port Tack which is differant for Albany. One thing it got so glarry on the water you couldn't make out if it was small chop or large chop, sending it blind as a bat got the heart pumping.

Massive white out while Ronni and I where heading back towards Rushi, both of us had to put the sails down, lasted 15 minutes of just spray flying everywhere, couldn't see Albany was like being in a thick Fog, no rain just persistant 45-50knots just spraying water. People on the shore must have thought we where mad.

Great sailing with the big Fella, even though he doesn't like Port Tack think he managed a PB on that tack. Bit of a mission to get back to Rushi lucky we called it when we did as it would have been a long walk.
