iS122, CRed 7.7, 46 C3 Venom, Yeppoon, Wind 11 - 19knots

Couldn't rig the 8.8 as I haven't got a replacement boom yet - this was a god send at the end of the day as the wind kicked in towards the end of my first hour and I had a blast.  Probably one of the more enjoyable sails I've had in a while and didn't come off at all.  I was quite surprised just how well the venom went towards the end when the wind got up to 20 knots.  I fully understand when you guys talk about a fin being "rock solid".  Even though the water was pretty messed up I was able to weave my way through it to get some half decent runs. 

I also broke my 1 hour PB for up here.

Wello sailing with some of the other mobbers. Wind was a bit too weak for me, though I was planing allright in the end, but dredging a lot for the first half. May be 7 to 13 knots. Falcon 111, Stealth 7.6, and a 39 cm fin ( forgotten the type). Ended up having almost smooth gypes, but needed more wind to plane through. I hope the wind turns up for the comp tomorrow.

dragged for a while there, could have done with an 8.5

7.8 switchblade, IS122, 46cm venom (managed to scrape it on reef and was lucky not to wrench it off)

Minor damage nothing unusual.

hope the racing is better tomorrow for everybody.
