Driving back form Conwy saw no wind in Penmaenmawr but white water in Llan
then wind disappeared half way to Aber. Didn't go out as guessed gusty as
it usually is around the headland. With nothing to lose rigged 144/8.5m and
wind a bit up and down and swinging slowly, but OK. Surprised to get a sail
as little forecast. Clouds in land so maybe a sea breeze. First time
planing with this board and a little harder to get going than I expected.
Seems comfortable, maybe won't back in Felixstowe chop, but does not feel
quick.Wind dropped as tide dropped, maybe same breeze Friday?
Didn't switch GPS on first ride which was a long one so added 1nm on.
Took £25 VHF out for safety tucked inside my wetsuit. Felt a burning, took
it out and it leaked water and shorted batteries melting the case inside.
