25th June 2007
Other: Draycote Wind Direction: NNW Wind Stength: Force 6 Surf / Sea State: small waves Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: warm Weather: rain Max Speed: 25ish (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered:
Having passed the RYA safety boat certificate, I wanted to do some real
work on a wet and windy evening.
Yesterday evening delivered. NNW, force 6 and rain. Only windsurfers out
(see Steve's entry).
Had a blast in the RIB at Draycote - going upwind through the rain felt
like someone popping shoots at you with a pea shooter. Downwind was more
more relaxed - travelling at wind speed and smooth.
Dunks decided I needed a bit of practice so joined me in the other RIB. Of
course, that developed into a drag race in a matter of seconds.
Finished off with a pint at the bar.
