Went for a morning session as wind good and met Strawb at Dip 10am about an hour after high. Thought about 4.7m but Strawb rigged 4m so rigged 76l/4.2m which was spot on and even better when flattened sail after half an hour. Nice rollers from the red buoy to shore and even did a couple of semi-decent jumps. Water quite smooth and only chopped up when we packed up around 12:30 as getting tired and thrown in strong wind. Even Strawb fell in! Nice turns on inside and outside. Videod for a while but head getting hot so took helmet off. Best sail I've had for ages, and best sea I've seen at Felixstowe. 5*.
Phil T turned up as I left.
