Windsurfing: Ythan Estuary, Aberdeen Wind Direction: N Wind Stength: 10-18mph Surf / Sea State: Flat Air Temperature: Icy Sea Temperature: Chilly Weather: Bright Max Speed: Distance Covered:
Arrived at the water to find a couple of the guys rigging up a little
tenatively as it was mingingly cold, and there wasn't a huge amount of
water. A few other guys started to turn up as well. Wind was gradually
picking up though, so the Synchro and the 8.0m Strike F were rigged up
quickly. Got on the water and blasted back and forth quite enjoyably for
about 10 minutes, until my hands went numb. Came in to warm up with a hot
coffee, and a pair of gloves and went back out again, and the hands never
really got too cold again after that. Managed about an hour in total of
just planing winds, and then the wind dropped off. Sailing conditions
weren't brilliant, but even a few decent planing runs is normally enough to
keep me happy. Also a good chance to catch up with some of the guys who I
hadn't seen for a while - mighty cold though. As often happens, having just
packed up and got changed, the wind did pick up again, but by this time
only two of the guys were still rigged - and they made the best of this
upturn in fortune.
