Another long break from windsurfing, so great to be back.

Drove round the Bellarine trying to find other windsurfers but none. Eventually figured Point Richards was ideal... strong cross wind, but tame looking sea. Not a soul about, but couldn't let that stop me.

Launched between Car Park and Sailing Club, between the parks kite and windsurfing signs.

Edged out on 4.7m, caught fin a few times. Maybe it was low tide, but not safe to start blasting until beyond yellow buoy. Lots of mussels washed up on beach so wore boots, but actually didn't seem to be any on sea floor, just sand. Maybe in future launch opposite Sailing club, might be deeper there.

Overpowered so changed down to 4.2 (another first). Had a bit of a sail, still very powered up, good session.
