Windsurfing: The Dip-Felixstowe Wind Direction: S Wind Stength: 6/9 Surf / Sea State: choppy Air Temperature: 13 Sea Temperature: 16 Weather: cloudy Max Speed: 12.2 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 15.7 (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
With a little more breeze than forecast I decided to have a trip down the
coast to the Orwell river mouth.The beat down was okay but after safely
crossing the main channel the Haven harbour master told me you were not
allowed to windsurf in the channel which was news to me as I have been
doing it on and off for 25 years !!!!!! and I always aim to cross as
quickly as possible(this time I waited on the beach to let a huge container
ship past),he then escorted me back. The reach back was hard work as the
wind dropped and the sea was choppy!!!!
but at least the sun came out.So that was 2hrs 41min and 42 sec on the
water with an average speed of 5.8 kts - I have had better sessions !!!!
