Distance Covered:

I first went to Hove but having misread the tide-times and found horrible shorebreak and bugger-all wind, I thought I'd continue on to 'windy Worthing' (Goring, actually).

Felt like just enough wind and much flatter so went out somewhat optimistically. Surprisingly the Dyno still worked okay, although a bit slow it was always planing and there were a few good jumping opportunities.

I only sailed for 30-40mins and the wind dropped a bit more. I was the only person out for as far as I'd seen either way, but apparently an hour or two later it picked up and a few went out on 5.8s.


P.S. I meant to say on my last Shoreham session I met a nice chap from Cambridge who usually sails at Felixstowe, where I used to sail when I worked in Ipswich. Apparently the Dip is now almost unsailable due to the continuously shifting sands (shame), but it was nice to hear that it's still quite lively there! Hello to any Felixstrowe crew reading this :)
