It was too nice a day not to try, wall to wall sunshine and a balmy 11 degrees:) With the wind in the west I headed to Levington even though the tide was low and still going out! In the marina I spoke to a nice man who works there and he said he had no problem with windsurfers parking:) so I went to my usual spot by the marina entrance and with the wind gusting over 20 mph so went with 8.5 on the longboard and sadly it was never enough and I should have rigged the 9.4! I still enjoyed nearly three hours out in the sunshine sailing up to the docks watching the huge container ships being unloaded, I even saw one leave port and another come in!!! I also sailed nearly up to Pin Mill where there were hundreds of birds in the mud, I also saw a large seal:) Blowing a gale tomorrow with a good tide for Southend but I am working tonight so can't make :( Good speeds to everyone!
