Distance Covered:

2nd bite of the cherry. Faffed around driving to Andy Biggs to buy a new boom (lots of traffic and took 2 wrong turns), so didn't get to Salterns Park until 4.20pm, despite leaving home at 3.10pm. Was proper windy again, maybe more than yesterday. Thought I'd have a go on the Quatro since it's been a while. Wind started to drop off though just after I rigged up, and was marginal for the 5.2 for the whole session. Changed to the Bee and big fin but that didn't help. On my first run back in on it, wind swang NW'ly and dropped right off, the wind shadow on the inside at Salterns Park probably not helping. Left me with a long blob in to the shore 10 mins downwind of my launch point, so a nice walk-of-shame to finish off the session.

Wind was still sailable but big-kit stuff now, and I'd left the JP at home, and I couldn't be bothered anyway.

Arse.
