5th November 2026 Windsurfing: Levington Wind Direction: E Wind Stength: 5/14 Surf / Sea State: smooth and river chop Air Temperature: 12 Sea Temperature: Weather: Mainly cloudy Max Speed: 15.62 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 7 miles (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise) Thursday 5th November – Windsurf * River Orwell at Levington – mainly cloudy. Foil – 15.62 knot max, 11.78 knot ave., 4.12 knot hour, 4.44 knot mile, 10.90 km.,9.99 knot alpha. Starboard Freeride 150 and a Tushingham Bolt 5.75m. After missing a couple of days of windy days from the NE to E where the sea was big with some great waves but with temperatures of 10 degrees so an open sea session was not for me and the tides were not ideal for the rivers! With the east wind easing today to a forecast 20 knots I decided to give Levington Marina a try driving over around nine so I could make the most of the 8 o clock high water. Mag didn’t have anything to do so decided to come with me to have a walk there! The weather was a tad on the gloomy side and with the wind in the east it was difficult to judge its strength so went on the forecast and rigged a 5.75 which proved a big mistake and my 8.2 which I didn’t even have with me! I left Mag to have her breakfast in the van and sailed out, I did get flying briefly but I was way underpowered, I headed over to the far bank near Trimley foreshore but sadly it was no better, I wobbled down to the docks and back before calling it a day, not great:( I then packed up and headed to the shower block where I couldn’t turn the water off so had to tell the office, Mag was going to make a chicken sandwich for lunch but I had forgotten to take the butter and mayonnaise so we headed home for lunch!
