Quite a few people out today - Ali (from the Tiree Trip Crew) turned up with a couple of his mates from Dundee Uni. He managed to persuade his dad (Big Jim) to come out as well as the wind was pretty good. Alan, Jim, Andy (with re-modelled board nose) and myself were enjoying the conditions. Rigged the 8m as the wind was only just about OK for planing to start with, but it picked up nicely and at the end, was massively over powered and stuggling to keep the board on the water - fantastic speeds though! Should really have changed down to a 6.3m or 5.8m, but too knackered so called it a day after a great session. Everybody was loving the conditions.
