17th November 2003
Windsurfing: Dahab Wind Direction: NE Wind Stength: lots Surf / Sea State: wind chop Air Temperature: 30 Sea Temperature: Weather: SUNNY ! not cloud in sky Max Speed: Distance Covered:
Arrived at windsurf centre at 8am for safety breifing on where and where
not to sail
My prebooked board for the week and a naish titan 252 (110lts)
Waited til 11.30 for the wind to kick in proper and went out with 5.7 neil
pride espression sail
Spent a few hours getting used to my hire board maybe about the same size
as my 263 techno but was a lot diffrent in handling when pushing the front
away I kept sinking the front of the board and it would just head for the
sea bed ! not good !
I was still having a few problems but was getting better and it was great
sailing in shorts and rash vest!
The wind picked up a bit more later in the afternoon and the free style
sail didn't like it one bit couldn't lock it down.
Decided to call it a day about 3pm had to save some for tomorow
