Distance Covered:

Left home 2:50pm, arrived 3:10pm not expecting much wind but pleased to see a few other boarders out and planing occasionaly.

Rigged v.quickly

Got onto the plane a few times and made a point of attempting a gybe at the end of each reach - where possible.

Making progress with c.gybes - staying dry on most, but still to plane out of one. Actually getting to the point where I need to flip the rig more often than not - think this is coz I'm more comfortable at planing speed, and actually try to increase speed as I initiate the gybe.

On the water for approx 1 1/2 hrs, back home by 5:30pm - promising, albeit short session, but worth it.
