Windsurfing: Levington Wind Direction: w Wind Stength: 18/25 Surf / Sea State: river chop Air Temperature: 11 Sea Temperature: 8 Weather: sunny Max Speed: 25.9 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 16 (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
Took Mag(the wife) for breakfast in the van by the river,I just happened to
take the boards along - just in case.I was not holding out too much hope as
it was low water at midday and I did'nt fancy along walk through the mud
!!!! It was not too bad at about 11 and the wind was gusting to 25mph+ so I
rigged 7.5 in an attempt to push 30 kts on the longboard !!! After a 100m
walk in the mud I made it to the water,then reached to Harwich to see the
damaged cranes at Felixstowe docks then reached up and down the river for
1hr 30mins but only making a top speed of 25.9 mainly because it was quite
choppy and I could not sail broad enough because of the lack of
water.Getting back ashore was abit of a nightmare because of the long walk
in the mud!!!
We the had dinner and went for a 2hr walk along the river - a mega day !!!
