Windsurfing: Ynyslas Estuary Wind Direction: ENE Wind Stength: 25-30 knots Surf / Sea State: Flat Air Temperature: 1ºC Sea Temperature: 8ºC Weather: Sunny Max Speed: 31.3 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 12.2 (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
A lovely sunny day but very cold. The ools in the dunes were forzone solid
and with the wind chill we were looking at temps of around minus 8!
Still, once on the water it was fine and I didn't feel at all cold. I
didn't wear gloves and even my hands were warm. A kitesurfer did join me
and had trouble untangling his lines as his hands were so cold so I helped
him out. He then got too cold and only stayed on the water for a short
time.
I stayed out for a while, blasting back and forth on my wave kit and
managed a top speed of 31.3 knots. Not great, but not bad either
considering the kit I was on and the fact that I wasn't really trying.
A nice day in the estuary with Ivor on top form. Got to try out my new mast
boom and sail for the first time too.
