Windsurfing: Ythan Estuary, Aberdeen Wind Direction: SW Wind Stength: 25- 35mph Surf / Sea State: Small Chop Air Temperature: Cold Sea Temperature: OK Weather: OK Max Speed: 29 mph (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered:
Nice wind direction and plenty of wind - solid 25mph with the odd 30 mph
gust when we first arrived. Rigged the 5.0m, and small board, and got on
the water with a number of others - Jim, Alan, Big John, Slev, Mike,
Bertrand. Everybody was flying, often on the edge of control, but loving it
non the less. Making a few half decent gybes, but often getting flattened
by the gusts - all good fun and great to watch the wipeouts! The wind was
picking up all session, and it was consitently more than 30 mph, at about
3:30pm when most people had decided they needed smaller sails, but couldn't
be bothered to rig as they were knackered. Managed 29 mph on the NavMan -
fastest I've recorded, so was quite pleased - still trying to get 30 mph
though! All in all, a great session, and a good crowd / banter! This is
what its all about.
