30th May 2009 Windsurfing: The Dip-Felixstowe Wind Direction: ne Wind Stength: 12/18 Surf / Sea State: big then calming down Air Temperature: 18 Sea Temperature: 12.5 Weather: sunny Max Speed: 20.87 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 27 (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise) I managed to get down to The Dip just before 4 and Ian was out planning with 8m on his carve so decided to rig 9.4 and go for a cruise on the longboard !!! David Coles had just beat up from The Manor with 11m on his formula for a coffee at the cafe so I reached back with him but I was abit underpowered to sail broad so David had the edge !!! While David stopped I continued along the coast and landed by the tower in the middle of Dovercourt beach,after taking a few pics sailed further down the coast to the remote beach in front of Titchmarsh/Horsey Island - a wonderful spot with only birds for company and it would be a great place to sail from if access was better !!! With the breeze increasing and the sea brcoming bigger I had a mega beat back again stopping at Dovercourt to downhaul the sail.I saw a liner,a huge container ship leave Felixstowe and had to wait for a smaller ferry to pass before crossing the shipping channel !!! The wind was easing abit now and by the time I got back to The Dip to met Mark S. on the water the sea was really flat.Best of all it was warm and there was not a cloud in the sky and there is more for tomorrow !!! can't wait.Then home for a meal with Mag to celebrate our 30th wedding aniversery - where have those years gone ???? |
