| Hoppy (28117km): 1 categories  Tried Stansbury at low tide. Had to walk through the sludge for 200 meters but once in the water found no weed and sailed to the 3 mile beacon looking for glassed over patches,near the spit, along the way. Seems the Sputnik wont go faster than 30 knots Does anyone know how to make a Sputnik go 35 knots? | ||||||||||||||||||
Sammy (43276km):  2 categories What a day. Rocked up at 11:30. Had a few ports with carl. Thanks mate. Went out on the 9.5 and a 160 litre Bic. Came in after 30 km and changed to a 7m and 89 falcon. Finishing hour when I felt something in the rig let go. Looked down thinking the line had let got and I was relying on the tubin. As I did that the arm broke completely off and I found myself with one arm of the boom and the rig about ten metre away Fu-k. Floundered back and thought I'll just go back to the 9.5 even though overpowered but did not care at this point. Just got upwind in the flatter water when you guessed it the other f-ckn boom broke. Had to flip the boom around three runs in a row to get back what a shitta. Then pissed off I thought ef it and fully extended my only remaining boom and a small one at that onto my 7 m and went back out. Lucky it held and I finished the day reasonably happy. Is it just me or are booms getting weaker. Gun booms don't seem to be all that gun to me. Good to catch up with Pete for the first time in a long while. Fun day considering all the money it cost me:-((((((((  | ||||||||||||||||||
Carlos (52336km):  1 categories  Interesting arvo at Boggy lake. Decided to try newly acquired 8.4 rs6 and Black Project R40cm fin in Fanatic falcon 102. Started out 12 - 15 knots and by the time i headed up to the top of the lake picked up to 13 - 18 knots. Pretty happy managed a 31.11 on the screen with the 8.4 and mid 30 knot 10 second run Fanatic falcon 102 / 8.4m neil pryde rs6 / Black Project R40 (very nice fin) Isonic 86 / 2011 loft racing blade 7m / 35 cm sl7 and 33cm sl7 (RIP). Boggy lake - 13 - 18 knots.

PJ (24612km):  14-01-12 Boggy Lake SSW to S 16-24 knots-7.8m Loft Blade-Fanatic SL111-Select S12 39cm Great days sail. Was only going to do a couple hours but conditions were so favourable and was getting my gybes so just kept on going and going and going! Carnage re equipment failures for Sam and Carl, hope my gear hangs in there.

| X (4599km): Afternoon boggy blast. Think I did not have enough downhaul on the sail it felt great and had llots of get up and go but seemed not to mave a good top end. Hifly Madd 165, Hot Sails Maui Speed Demon 8m, 2 x Hifly freeride 34 For such a placid day it seems a lot of gear got broken!

.
. Saw Sam had changed to 7m so decided to change down aswell. Decided on the 7m loft racing blade on isonic 86 with 33cm sl7. Started a 1 hour and after getting in the groove my favourite fin 33cm sl7 fin fell out of the fin base at 30 knots
. Pretty slippery with no fin but managed to keep all the rig intact. After a 1 hour walk back to car found only the tuttle base in board and also found two of Sam's booms broken on the shore
