Went for breakfast at the Dip with Mag in the van and was in no hurry to get out as it was cloudy,rainy and cold !!!! Roger and Paul Vickers came down and went out so I decided to give it ago.With the wind gusting to 20 mph 7.5 on the Xantos was right for 90% of the time.I beat to the Ferry and had ago in the river but the tide was too strong and the wind too light so I spent ages playing in the waves in front of the golf club.I then had some good reaches down the coast to The Fludgers bouy and beat back which was great fun and very rough a mile out!!! A good day despite no sunshine with loads of windsurfers and kiters out.Paul V. had a bad day breaking the front off his board !!! I also had a 100% duck gybe success rate - tried 2 made 2 !!!!
