Windsurfing: The Fludgers-Felixstowe Wind Direction: sw Wind Stength: 10/13 Surf / Sea State: smooth Air Temperature: 22 Sea Temperature: 17 Weather: sunny Max Speed: 17.18 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 21 (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
With no wind forecast this week I was surprised when returning to
Felixstowe from work to find 13 mph of wind :) I was back at The Fludgers
and rigged by 4 !!! The wind was a bit light to start but filled in
alittle and in the end it was about 3mph off a 5 Star session !!! I spent 2
hours beating down the coast as far as Landguard and reaching back. The
beat was best planning upwind on the plate but the wind was just not strong
enough downwind - so close but a lovely unexpected sail out in the sunshine
:) I was joined later by Chris Phillips out on his 145 and 7.5, he might
have got going if he had rigged 8.5 !!! Lets hope for more sea breezes this
week !
Can anyone help ???
I am looking for beating straps for my raceboard - I got some reinforced
rubber from a place in Ipswich but I think they are no longer there :(
Also I keep breaking my tube batterns and am looking for some round batern
approx. 9/10 mm to repair them.
Also my Tushingham Lightning is on it's last legs and am looking for one to
replace it
Please email if you can help :)
