Distance Covered:

Good session, wind up and down, but the 4.7m was a good pick and well powered up until the tide turned.

Mostly kitesurfers by the windsurf hut, and mostly JP $ailors at the car park to the west of that. That car park seemed to cost £2.50 which is absurd as the car park behind the Mersea windsurfers hut is free. So I left my pride behind and launched with that funny breed who wear their board shorts outside their wetsuits.

Loads of people out, had a weekend feel to it. As it was near high tide could sail right up to beach with no restrictions. Sea was a little lumpy with wind against tide, but smoothed out nicely at high tide. Could have then done with the 5.5m, but thought I'd save myself for tomorrow.
