My 100th session of the year :)
The wind just keeps on blowing so after our adventure to Essex yesterday it
was back to Levington today to make the most of the good tides this week:)
Arriving at the marina at 9.40 with Robert coming shortly after and with
plenty of water and an OK breeze we quickly set up our foils, with the WSW
wind gusting 15/19 mph I rigged 6.5 while lighter Robert went for 6m which
proved aright for a couple of hours of fun in the sun despite some really
big gusts coming through! With some west in it today it meant you could
beat to Felixstowe docks in one if the wind was up, straight into the
sunshine in smooth water, just lovely:) Got some reasonable mile times and
some OK gybing but it did chop up a little as there was loads of water in
the river being a extra high tide! My third session in as many days was
beginning to take its toll and with the tide turned the wind went patchy so
it was time to call it a day, another good session:)
More wind tomorrow but I am having a tooth out in the morning so will have
a day off but hope to get out again on Friday before the wind eases.
