Al and Mark flying on flat water so rigged 118l/8.5m at 12:45. Sea a bit choppy but quite nice. Much flatter over by Golf and by the time I made my way there wind had dropped a bit. Still planing nicely, then it went flat every where except as far as red and white buoy where choppy. Nice runs back and forth. Landed on Golf a couple of times, one to loosen sail an second to warm finger tips and chill blanes had their few minutes of pain, argh.
Board feels like it has plenty of gas but maybe sail not delivering. Loosened sail it captured power better. Al and Mark D out,Mersea visitor on 6m and Swainey. As I left wind was still up, though looking so flat didn't look like any. Far out plenty of white horses and presumably wind.
