Windsurfing: The Dip-Felixstowe Wind Direction: ESE Wind Stength: 15 Surf / Sea State: rolling waves Air Temperature: 5 Sea Temperature: 7 Weather: sunny Max Speed: 22.6 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 1 (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
Went to the cliff top for breakfast with Mag and there was a couple of kiters and a windsurfer out but were struggling abit as the wind
was onshore and the wind lighter than they thought!!! It was low water and the sea looked great I decided to give it an hour-big
mistake !!! By the time I had rigged 7.5 on the xantos the tide was coming in with a big break but i made it off the beach fine and
headed toward the Fludgers and the waves were great but pushing you to the beach,I turned by Cobbolds Point and realised I was not
going to make it back upwind so I turned again and ended up right on top of one of the rock groynes and luckily I was washed over the
rocks with the only damage a couple of holes in my beloved xantos !!! (must see if I can get one off ebay cheap) I packed up and walked
the mile back to the van as I was not going to risk launching as the groynes close together and the swell big !!! Not one of my better
days !!!
