My first afternoon/evening session of the year,down the Dip by 4 and a couple of kiters were going okay in the river mouth but later discovered it was the out going tide against the wind helping them plan.As I struggled even with the raceboard and 9.4,still it was a nice sunny afternoon so had a trip nearly as far as Bawdsey Martello and back,the wind picked up a little so I sailed to the R.Orwell mouth which was pleasent enough in the onshore winds.My knee and wrist joints hold up not too bad and it would have been 5 stars if there was 5 mph more wind and it was 10 degrees hotter !!!
Tried the gt31 gps out for the first time,abit of a nightmare must get the hang of the controls and as for downloading to gps-speedsurfing I need serious help and as for getting my tracks on google earth I have no idea !!!
