12th June 2020
Windsurfing: Bradfield
Wind Direction: ENE
Wind Stength: 8kts
Surf / Sea State: flat
Air Temperature: warm
Sea Temperature: warm
Weather: Cloud / Rain
Max Speed: 7kts (knots - unless stated otherwise)
Distance Covered: 1.5nm (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)

Wind didn't turn up today at Bradfield, with tide at 5 ish, the rain / mist killed the wind. 1 out on fin, not going and it started to drizzle, I should have gone home. After checking forecasts again theoretically, sun and wind should be about 6pm but again rain came. I rigged just to keep James company, and Howard turned up, so stayed rigging 8.5 and a large front wing on my Slingshot foil.
I never got a sniff after 2 long runs, so called it a day when Paul D turned up to collect his foil (Which didn't turn up). As he is lighter than me, he took my gear out, but the rain increased. The wind did freshen a little to prob 10kts and he did get some small flights but again it died.
Chasing 10kts of wind is ridiculous so wont waste my time again, as life is way too short. Now Covid is over am selling my carbon road bike, which I could have cleaned.
