Sailing Today

Looks as though a few of us will be heading out from the seafront today at about 10:30am... Conditions look good - 25 knots SW with some big waves.

Anyone else joining us?

Probably... Wind is around 25-35 knots at the mo.

Gonna head over in a bit to check it out properly and see how rough it is looking.

It was pretty wild out there so I only stayed out for about 40 minutes - overpowered with a 4.5m sail.

How did you get on with your 7m kite?

It was mental out there. I believe gusts were up to 40 knotst . Wind was between 25 and straight up to 40 and being straigh cross shore did not make it easy.. I had a short session and called it off for safety reasons

had defo a better session last sunday...

Haha... Pretty much the same as when I was out there then... Told you it wasn't much fun out there. Still good, just not very easy conditions.
