After this morning's session I went for a nice bike ride and then tried
again. Wind dropped when I got to the beach again though so almost didn't
bother but rigged my 6.7m sail and decided to give it a go. First run and I
couldn't get planing until quite a way offshore. Did get going though and
just about kept it on the plane. Felt a little better ont he way back in
and I stayed upwind so decided to stay out. To start with I gybed before
headed back into the whitewater to make the most of the cleaner wind out
the back but soon the wind filled in and I was soon maxed out and having a
whale of time.
Surprised by just how much wind that sail can handle. The sun was shining I
was well-powered and flying along.
