Distance Covered:

I had planned to go in the morning, but on first inspection it looked better to go in the afternoon. In hindsight it made little odds.

A typical very-offshore day at Brog. I went straight downwind and within 10 mins was planing up and down about 75%. The occasional shower came over. Then it really picked up. On the 6.3 I was well powered up, did some nice gybes, and got a few reaches from top to bottom of the lake. Very nice. On port tack there was enough in the chop to do a few jumps.

Not many people there, maybe as it was cold. John B and some others went to Grafham which is better on a northerly.

I came in for T after the wind dropped a bit, and I'd been practicing a bit of free style.

Phil L had just bought a new 144 Carve and had spent half an hour deflowering her. He had a good time! Later we went out as it looked like it might be picking up again. It wasn't!

To finish the day, Phil helped a woman who'd arrived with her 4 kids at 5:45 complete with never used kit. They'd gone out and bought it all after a Club Vass trip. She needed some help rigging, having never done it B4!Nice for some.
