After spending 12 hours driving to Swansea and back needed some me-time so went to Felixstowe; almost turned back as rain started again. 4 kiters out so gave it a go. Almost rigged 5.2m but rigged 6m and glad as not as windy it looked as a bit onshore but nicely powered in sea. Lovely and smooth waves and some chop. Another chap and Paul also sailed. Nice by Golf, though grounded out once; it's getting shallow. A good hour then sail popped out top as lost Gaaastra sail plug. Found a spare but wind dropping so packed up. Excellent sail and best sea for ages.
