The windy week continues with the best days all coinciding nicely with my free time and decent tides yay. Today - bonkers windy. Having checked out Hove en route which looked mental and not much fun I arrived at Shoreham to be greeted by the sight of plenty of fellow slackers on the water all maxed on tiny tiny sails. Quote BillD: "I'm mullered on a 3.7"...

So up went the 4.0 rigged pancake flat. And only 15 minutes later a huge squall passed over. Arse. The wind went wierd for the next half hour...offshore...onshore...mental....calm...and I was cursing my luck thinking that might be the end of play. But eventually it returned and with a vengeance allowing a solid full power (literally...) 90 mins in surprisingly decent waves by Shoreham standards especially for the time of the year and in the company of Nik Baker amongst others. I scored a few nice turns but unfortunately fatigue at the best part of the session (the end) prevented a 4 star performance.

Forecast says even WINDIER tomorrow. :-0
