Windsurfing: The Dip-Felixstowe Wind Direction: SE Wind Stength: 16 Surf / Sea State: choppy Air Temperature: 10 Sea Temperature: 9 Weather: sunny then cloudy Max Speed: 20.8 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 18.2 (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
It started off one star as I rushed down to the dip at 4 to sail with
Paul.I rigged 7.5 on the Xantos and was going to try and video the session
with my camers straped to an old bike hut(I don't care if I look like a
complete burke!!!! ) I set off and headed for the R.Deben or I should say
flondered as the wind had dropped!!!! I beached at the golf bar just as the
camera was falling off-not my best idea.I had to walk the camera back to my
van and returned to the bar just as the two kiters were packing up because
of the light winds.I thought I would struggle back but after a couple of
slow runs it clouded over and the wind filled in.I spent over an hour
reaching along the coast to the Spa and back !!!! On my last run I noticed
the bomb disposal crew in their boat waving me out of the way.I returned
and packed up and on the way home there was hundreds of people lining the
prom waiting for the bomb(which they had just found) to be detonated.It
went off just as I got home-can't wait to watch the local news!!!!
ps. made it on About Anglia TV - I was the windsurfer escorted away !!!!
famous at last !!!!!
