Windsurfing: Felixstowe-Dip
Wind Direction: SSW
Wind Stength: F5-6
Surf / Sea State: smooth rollersand messy chop
Air Temperature: 19
Sea Temperature: 18
Weather: sun and cloud
Max Speed: 24 (knots - unless stated otherwise)
Distance Covered: 26 (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)

On the wateraround 3:30 with 96/6m which was right. Nice rollers and sea fairly smooth. After 45mins it suddenly chopped up and wind increased as Strawb arrived with 5m and Paul S rigged. Changed to 76/4.7m and flattened that as Strawb moved to 4.5m.
Sea bit messy with some good rollers then smoothed out later. Wind was gradually moving West and sailed until 6:10when it swung more off and decreased. Tom also turn up and moved from 5.7m to 4.1m. There was about 30mins when I would have been better on 4.2m as windier than it looked. Tried a few jumps and had one decent one, Paul did some good uns. Wind was a little gusty at time and HHA showed a bit offshorelater on. At low quite a few breaking waves, so sandbanks must be building between Golf and Dip. Tired after a good session,and hot in 4/3mmwhen the sun shore. 4*
