Distance Covered:

A line of showers was passing through in the morning, causing the wind to vary quite a bit. Rigged 6.2 and 5.3m to try to cover the range. Started on 6.2 and Bee 274. This was Ok but the wind soon picked up so took out the 5.3 and Max 2 Air. Could not get settled in the gusty conditions until we realised the wind had picked up still further. Some rapid re-rigging followed to leave 4m and 5.3m.

The wind then settled down for a fantastic sunny afternoon on 4m. The chop built up and was more spaced out with nice smooth troughs in between allowing ballistic acceleration. Still gusty, but it does not get any better inland. Packed in only when exhaustion set in. Excellent.
