5th September 2010 Windsurfing: Felixstowe Manor Wind Direction: east Wind Stength: F4 Surf / Sea State: rough Air Temperature: 20C Sea Temperature: Weather: OK Max Speed: Distance Covered: After Rhodes last week Felixstowe brought me back down to earth with a... 6 of us hung out for a good hour be4 the wind started filling. My sail choice chart said rig 7.8M as it was a building wind, rig 9.2M because I am a wa.ker :) The sea / shore break was OK but tricky, but there was aline between the waves. Had a few decent runs and gybes, but the 9.2M was too much. Stopped near the pier and crank downhaul/outhaul, and had afew more minutes but 7.0M was the right sail. At 4.30 cold, I had enough, watched the 6 or so sailors having a good time with Darren wave riding on 5.7 ish sail. Maker done his sail in trying to get thru the break on a easterly with not enough power...he didn't think much of Manor, but the sea did rough up a bit when the tide turned when I finished. Got cold at the end.... I would have had a great time on 7.8M...why do I always rig the wrong sail?... |
