22nd October 2022 Windsurfing: Levington Wind Direction: WSW Wind Stength: 5/15 Surf / Sea State: smooth Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: 17 Weather: sunny periods Max Speed: 18.16 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 12.75 mile (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise) Saturday 22nd October - Windsurf ** - River Orwell at Levington – sunny periods. Foil – 18.16 knot max, 16.63 knot ave., 2.69 knot hour, 8.79 knot mile, 20.53 km., 14.07 knot alpha. Starboard Freeride 150 and a Evolution Freeride foil with a Sailworks Retro 7.5m. Wasn’t thinking of a sail today but it was sunny with a bit of a breeze from the wsw so I thought I would check out Levington and agreed for Mag to bike down with lunch at midday:) I arrived at the marina at 10.20, just before high water and there was enough breeze to tempt me out on the foil with 7.5. I was out for over two hours playing hunt the gust, I had a few flying runs but it was a lot of floundering too. On the plus side I saw the Harwich lifeboat head up river to Pin Mill for an exercise with an old wooden barge, the Victor plus there was loads of yachts out and flocks of waders whizzing about! I slowly beat upriver but the wind was very light so returned and got a few flying runs across the corner with some OK gybes before calling it a day and headed back landing before the mud started to show with Mag already arrived, she had been reading in the van. I then used her bike to go to the showers before returning for a yummy chicken sandwich, we love our little van. Photo Album here |
