Windsurfing: The Dip-Felixstowe Wind Direction: s Wind Stength: 13/18 Surf / Sea State: lumpy Air Temperature: 23 Sea Temperature: 17 Weather: sunny periods Max Speed: 24.08 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 16.55 (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
Up at 4 this morning and then worked a 12 hour shift !!! we had to take
some plant to Beccles near the airport and I watched lods of tandom
skydivers landing and there was a good breeze blowing !!! So I didn't get
home until just before 5 and went straight home to get my gear and went
to The Dip just behind David Coles with Steve Carter already out on 8.5 and
his new big board. I rigged 8.5 and went out on the big xantos and the
onshore wind made it perfect for a beat along the coast :) It took 3/4
tacks to make it to the pier at the same time as David on his formula kit
and 11m and we had a good broad reach back even if the sea was very lumpy
and I was a bit under powdered but still a top three mile reach !!! I had
some fun in the rough water in the river mouth and I managed to fall in the
rough a couple of times but survived without breaking anything !!! Nice
hour + and maybe some more over the weekend :)
