After giving windsurfing a miss yesterday despite it being sunny I was keen
to try today with a good westerly forecast but sadly showers were moving
through :( With high water around 9.30 I headed over to Levington Marina
arriving at nine but I have lost a bit of my windsurfing mojo at the moment
all take setting up and packing up can be a chore! It was not very inviting
on the Orwell with a huge black cloud approaching up the river, I had just
set up my foil board when the first shower arrived! So I got back in the
van and had a drive around the marina taking some pics to send to the
telly! The rain passed and the sun did make an appearance in patches, it
looked breezy out on the water so rigged my 5.75 which proved ideal to
start with and I had a few good runs before a couple more showers arrived
and the wind went really patchy so I decided to call it a day, shower and
head for home in time to have lunch with Mag. The weather continued to be
all over the place with wind from 10 to 30 30 knots and more rain nut Mag
and I managed a walk down along the prom where the sun made an appearance
before doing the full length of the town to get a few bits!
