Distance Covered:

Quick afternoon sail at West Hove Buffers. 5.9m on 100 ltr freestyle. Planed off the beach, nice little table top, few jumps, sweet gybe, rolling wavelets back to the shallows, adjusted the boom, copped a small wave on the head and yikes, the sail was ripped from middle of window to leech, with the leech fully severed!!!!

One roll of duck tape and some fishing line later and back out. Still getting on the plane, but wind dropping, so more pumping, then the duck tape gave up, leaving just 4 strands of fish line connecting the first and second batten ends above the boom. Not so good for pumping.
