Windsurfing: Levington Wind Direction: w Wind Stength: light to 20(For 5 mins) Surf / Sea State: river chop Air Temperature: 18 Sea Temperature: 17 Weather: sunny periods Max Speed: 22.45 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 8 (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
With the big winds of the last couple of days gone and the wind still
west-offshore at Felixstowe a load of us head for Levington.Mag and I
arrive first for breakfast and get a good parking spot and are greeted with
sunshine and a good breeze gusting to 20kts :) I decided to take a chance
with the 7m on the Falcon 90 but after one run across the wind died and
uphauling the small board is a nightmare !!! So return to the shore and rig
8.5 although I should have rigged 9.4 and took the longboard for a cruise:)
First off I went to the docks and back ,then a beat to Pin Mill but the
wind was very up and down even for the river :( and I was getting very cold
in my shortie(it's days are numbered now) Then back for dinner in the van
with Mag who had been on a great walk around the bay and then discuss the
finer points of speedsailing with Mark S,Steve,Darren,Roger and Paul V :)
so abit of a crap sail even if the veiws are great but good to see so many
mates !!!!
