After two windy afternoons it was too much to ask for three in a row but it was sunny for a change and there was a little breeze on the Landguard site so I took the gear down at about 3:30. There seemed just enough to get the raceboard going so rigged big and the beat to The Fludgers was nice , railed up and in the straps but the wind was getting lighter so turned and headed back. With the daggerboard down and by running down the back of the waves I reached slowly back. With three kiters now out in the River Deben but using the out going tide to get going they were going well but too light for me so read a chapter of my book, then the breeze picked up a little so I headed over to the Deben and played in the waves and current for awhile as the wind got lighter and lighter so decided to call it aday! Would have been good as warm and sunny - all I needed was some wind!
