we got to the estuary about 3pm, and measured the wind at about force 4.

So we riged a 5.0 for Sarah and a 5.7 for me.

We had only just started when the wind picked up, there were some big gusts. I was struggling with my 5.7 so I nicked Sarahs 5.0, and although still overpowered I was in a little bit more control. Sarah decided to sit it out, I did offer to rig a smaller sail honest ;)

I had a bit of a rest and the wind dropped off slightly, so I went out again, and had a much better time, still on the 5.0.

The wind looked like it was going to pick up again, so I decided to call it a day, well it was 5:30 anyway and I was getting tired.

It was a tough sail, but I enjoyed myself although I hadn't been able to do more than just blast back and forth. :)
