Windsurfing: The Manor-Felixstowe Wind Direction: wsw Wind Stength: 14/20 Surf / Sea State: smooth Air Temperature: 13 Sea Temperature: 10 Weather: sunny periods Max Speed: 21.81 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 24.80 (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
Finished work now for the year and with the mild weather and wind forecast
for another week it was too good an opportunity to miss today. With low
water at 8:30 and the wsw wind dropping by lunch time I was at The Manor
rigged and ready to go by 10.30, the wind looked light so I rigged big and
made the most of the sunshine:) the wind threatened to pick up overpowering
the 9.4 but every time the really good gusts came along I seemed to be
beating back so a bit disappointed with the speeds but never the less I was
out on the water over two hours with no hat and gloves and had some mega
runs out to the Wadgate Post and down to the Fludgers:) I did the Fludgers
run a couple of times before the wind swung more off shore and dropped, so
a good sail with just me and Al Wiz on the water - a good time was had by
all and more of the same tomorrow:)
PS - the highlight of the session was a low flying Hercules circling all
morning dropping parachuters into the sea!!!
