Windsurfing: The Dip-Felixstowe Wind Direction: SW Wind Stength: 20/30 Surf / Sea State: Big Air Temperature: 17 Sea Temperature: 17 Weather: Sunny periods Max Speed: 25.4 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 34.6 (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
Got down early as I wanted to make the most of the low water and sunny
conditions as it was supposed to rain in the afternoon.Being the first
windsurfer there I had to chose a sail so I went for 5.6 on the waveboard
and was on the water just after 10.That combination worked great for a
couple of hours and with wind against tide you could go anywhere.I had a
trip up to the river mouth to join the kiters but the conditions there were
no better so I returned to the dip just before it tipped it down with rain
which killed the wind for awhile.It then came back with a vengence so I
changed to 4.25 and was abit under but then had another good hour fully
powered as the tide approached high making getting off the beach
interesting.So a good time was had by most although there was 2/3 damaged
sails but not too bad considering and after 3hrs 35 mins decided to call it
a day.Then got Mag and went to Levington to watch a couple of windsurfers
out with 4.0 and 5.6 !!!!
