A perfect day, gorgeous sunshine and 30 knot winds, so after being a little
overpowered yesterday I took my 4.5m and big board across to the beach.
The tide was high, but that was OK, but there just wasn't really engouh
wind. I need 35 knots really for the 4.5m when the wind is so onshore and
that just wasn't quite happening. I could get going, but couldn;t get
upwind, so ended up with a walk of shame. In the end I sailed right across
the mouth of the estuary hoping to gain some ground upwind, but couldn't,
so ended up just making it back to this side of the beach and a massive
walk all the way back from the estuary.
The sea was mad as well with waves coming from all directions and loads of
backwash from the pebbles.
Should have taken the bigger sail across as a little more power would have
made for an epic session.
