8th February 2004 Windsurfing: Brog Wind Direction: NW Wind Stength: 20 to 35 mph Surf / Sea State: Flat / Chop Air Temperature: 8C Sea Temperature: 3C Weather: Sunny / Broken Cloud Max Speed: Distance Covered: Befs beats me to the PC again. I chose to fall asleep on the sofa watching Star Trek. Good day on the lake. Bought some NP mitten gloves as it was mighty cold today - they worked well - I kept swapping my fingers in and out of the pockets to avoid aching arms. To start with, about 11ish I was overpowered at times sailing from the beach to the point on the left, and beaching in the soft mud to turn. Did some nice jumps on purpose, one of which I went skyward on the starboard tack and landed in a heap with a bruised shin. Later it got quite gusty with a major variation in wind speed. BEFS & I struggled to get back to shore and got dumped backward in a lull, then couldn't even hang onto the sail waterstarting a minute later - crazy. Then Mike arrived, "yes 5.5 is OK - but Tony wrekons it will drop".... and it did but not that much. So after the obligatory bacon & egg roll I was out again for another hour just sailing back & forth practicing gybing as I approached the shore. One run back to the beach I decided not to, and stayed on for too long, I got off the back but the board & rig managed to make dry land, much to the onlookers amusement. Packed about 2 when Denise arrived to pick me up after her trip to the retail park for some therapy. Good day, good people, good sport. I'm happy. |
