Windsurfing: Marazion Wind Direction: W Wind Stength: F4-5 Surf / Sea State: Bit flat, really Air Temperature: 15C Sea Temperature: ok Weather: sunny Max Speed: Distance Covered:
Got to beach ~11:00 and didn't seem too windy. Rigged up 6.2m on 86l wave
board and found there was enough in the gusts, though there were plenty of
holes in the wind.
For some reason, the sail never felt right. Totally gutless, even. The sail
was always touching the boom near the back end which can't have been good,
despite putting on plenty downhaul & outhaul. When de-rigging, I found that
the two mast halves were not butted together so maybe that was the
problem.
All in all, a worthwhile sail though frustrating due to the above. Sadly
few waves around either, so not too much air time, though the cross-shore
wind lent itself to good frontside rides on the odd small wave.
About 16:00, switched to 110l Fanatic Cross, but it really wasn't
worthwhile as the wind had dropped too much by then.
