So our last day in Hampshire and still the wind blows even if it was abit
lighter than yesterday :( but the sun was out which made up for it !!! It
was a funny day being a 3 star session early as I strugged with the strong
tide and lighter wind but 5 stars later on as the tide eased and the breeze
increased !!! Rob had a ball in the flat water the far side of the bar in
the lagoon but I was having trouble staying upwind in the up and down winds
and strong tide.Rob was enjoying showing off to the crowd on the bar and
was neary getting his double loops !!!! I gave up after a couple of hours
and walked back to the van for refreshments and the help Rob with his
gear-kite caddy now !!! Then as the wind freshened and the tide eased I did
the Beaulieu river thing again all be it not so fast as yesterday as the
wind was lighter and the solent more choppy.A great weekend nevertheless
and I just love Lepe it's a fantastic place tp sail :)
