Max Speed: 25.29 (knots - unless stated otherwise)

It was'nt looking good cloudy,could and light offshore winds but at 3 o clock the wind picked up to 12/15 kts and was cross off at The Fludgers/Felixstowe.So I went with the carve(not my favourite board-it's abit slow) with 8.5 as the wind did'nt start for 100 m from the shore.Five of us in the end enjoyed a couple of hours blasting,I did play around with the sail settings - I'm trying to be a speed sailer !!! but the sea was quite big for fast times,but as the tide was against the wind it made staying upwind easy so you could go for some good broad reaches a mile and a half out to Wadgate Post !!! and my pb(on gps-speedsurfing.com) are improving slowly even if I am still having a little trouble finding my way around the GT-31 not only did I fail to save to card I changed the language to Polish !!! :)
