With 15 mph forecast by midday I went had a look just after dinner but the wind was very light so tried again after the school run as it was such a nice day :) Andy M was out on his longboard with 9.5 so I decided to join him!!! We had afew runs together then Andy went in and I sailed to the old windsurfing hut :) then reached to the big crane ship moored 4 miles from the dip to see if I could find out it's name !!! It is the Stanislav Yudin

I then sailed back to the Deben rivermouth to join the eight kiters including Rob :) thats when it went wrong big style when my sail got trapped in the shallow fast water and sheared the fin out of my beloved cat distroying the fin box :( I managed to sail back to the dip very sad so I am now looking for a light wind slalom and a longboard (or someone to repair it)
