Distance Covered:

Arrived at Pagham c. 13.00 expecting to have to wait for the wind but it was already "white caps on the water" and nearing high water. Rigged a 5.5 then it came on to rain before I could get out. The wind died and we sat around in the bar watching the anemometer reading. It seemed stuck at 10 knots even after the cloud cleared but eventually the wind picked up and I was out for an hour or so. A 6.0 metre would have been ideal but I settled for the 6.5 and had the pleasure of riding the fin upwind as and when I chose.

The next lot of rain put paid to the wind for a long time. Eventually the sun reappeared and a few people went out on big kit but it wasn't really enough. Some fantastic light effects.

Basically just hacking in and out, upwind, downwind, a few little jumps. Managed a few dry gybes before getting wet (always on the inside).

Too short for four stars so only 3.
