4th June 2011 Windsurfing: Bawdsey Quay Wind Direction: ne Wind Stength: 15/25 Surf / Sea State: flatish Air Temperature: 22 Sea Temperature: 12 Weather: sunny Max Speed: 26.33 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 23.22 (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise) Got up early to check conditions and as the forecast was nne slightly off at The Dip which was correct in the morning,Mag and I quickly loaded our campervan up and went to Bawdsey Quay for the weekend :) We parked at the end lay by with stunning veiws of Felixstowe Ferry across the River Deben and after a late breakfsat and with the tide well up rigged the same as yesterday,the longboard and 8.5 to check again the shortboard potential ??? I had well over a mile of perfect flat water down to Ramsholt bend the only trouble was the wind :( too holey and the wrong direction to stay in the flat water !!! I think it needs to be abit more north to work,but I had great fun reaching full tilt through the moored boats even if I was way over powered with 8.5 and wind gusting to over 25 mph !!! I was joined by three shortboard sailors who sailed up from the Ferry boat yard,still I improved yesterdays times a little and got my best n/mile of the year so not all bad.Sadly I pulled my back,which was not helped by a 5 mile walk to Bawdset Martello tower along the beach,but we had a lovelly free overnight camp for free and look forward to a couple of weeks away in the van at the end of June :) Photo Gallery here |
