Sorry Impi, but the wind did last and for most of the day too!

For some reason despite the wind gusting to 26 knots I had a moment of madness on the beach and rigged my 6.7m sail... i did rig it very flat though and had a good session well and truly powered!

Double Grrrrr!! I have never been so board in my life at the wedding. Can't poeple decide to get married when the wind is not blowing. How damn inconsiderate.

Glad you enjoyed the sail. The boom does not sound good. Maybe take the extension off and and give it a test as it might show up the weak point instead of while you are on the water.

Been an awsome weekend here - hot (30C today), sunny and about 15-20 knots both days - only downside is my lobster face for work tomorrow!
