Wooohooo...What an absolutely perect session!!. After kite-mountainboarding this morning, I sat around the beach waiting for the wind
that I was sure would come. Stevebus and Anne were there, so I had a cup of tea with them in their bus and by about 2pm the wind had
filled in so I rigged my 6.3m and my Fanatic Cross.
As soon as I was on the water, I was perfectly powered up and blasting across the green waters under a bright blue skiy.. Perfect. The
waves weren't anything special but I did make a few jumps. It was just gorgeous cruising weather. Stevebus was out on a big board and
7m sail and overpowered at times. We did sail along really close on a few occasions and sailed all the way into Borth together too. The
wind was ridiculously constant, not a gust or lull in it. I did gradually pick up though and I could have got away with my 5.7m sail
really, but as it was such a consistent wind and the water wasn't too rough, the 6.3 was perfectly acceptable.
I then sailed right out to the Aberdovey Bar bouy and beyond so that I was level with the big hotel between Aberdovey and Tywyn, and
then from there went on a massive flat out blast all the way to Borth, about 5 miles in total on one run just off the wind!!... Mad.
Anna and her mum came over to the beach for a bit so I came in to see them. Stevebus packed up to go home and I went back out for a few
more runs. I eventually got off the water at around 6.30pm completely stoked!!
The only downside was that the deck of my board has delaminated badly in between the straps. I don't know what to do about that yet.
