Windsurfing: Felixstowe-Fludyers Wind Direction: SW Wind Stength: F6 gust F7 Surf / Sea State: Smooth chop and rollers Air Temperature: 13.9 Sea Temperature: 11.7 Weather: low sun Max Speed: 23 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 17.9 (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
Looked at Dip where sea looked nice but 6m inshore and several hundred
metres out was 4.5m so off the Fludyers where Strawb was waiting. Looked 4m
or too much, then wind decreased to 6m. Waited some more and wind soon came
back and rigged 76l/4.7m which was spot on. Strawb on 5m and Andy M on 4.5m
after being a bit underpowered on 3.9m.
Bit choppy to start with but no real problem and enought to try a few
jumps. After low tide had smooth rollers and chop which was easier to gybe
in and leant more into gybes which helped. Didn't fall in for ages and was
getting hot, so mild today. On the water at 2pm and off at 3:20 after a
couple of landings to adjust sail, as wind decreased, came in just in time
as Andy M and Strawb landed a couple of groynes down. Great fun trying a
few jumps and riding down swells. Sea was nicer than it looked, warm too.
5*.
