 Morning sail on the falling tide. Forecast was not that great but ended up 15-20knt range. Thought I'd challenge myself by sailing the 1996 Starboard race slalom 119L x 280 long x 58 wide. Slow to plane but really cut through chop well. Unforgiving to the ankles with sharp rails all the way.

Breeze was more consistent so Swapped to the 100L  Naish 100L FSW with a smaller fin and it felt really crowded with the 6.4 sail. Starting to think I need a slalom board and leave the FSW for the sub 6m2 conditions where it is perfect. 

Best speeds on the old board.

Phil, you missed out. Hope you get a run in at Campwin.

Lake Tinaroo, QLD, AU.....When I got to dam this morning I was surprised to find Cap'n Morgan rigging up.  Sticking to my policy to sail underpowered I rigged 6.0m Gun Tempo and went out for an hour but did not get any planing runs.    Decided to come in for lunch and was just into first sandwich when I noticed Kel was really slicing it up.    I hurried back out and got 15 minutes of good wind, then it dropped like a brick.  The gear was almost dry when the rain set in.    What with Troy and Kel having good sessions I am pretty sure I can kiss my balls, I mean jelly beans, goodbye.  LG...Lifes Good!!!

Nice little sail with Herb at the dam, lunch time shower killed the wind for a while but it filled in nicely for a good 30mins after.

Used Isonic 121, C3 46S2 and Overdrive 7.5Cool

Great effort mate. I can report nothing but unhappiness up here in Cairns. Wet, Wet, mixed with a little bit more wettness and to top it all off, not a breath of air.Cry  Well done for getting out and having what would appear to be a red hot crack.

Starting to get the hang of the new Futura and today was the first time on the new Ezzy Lion and the combination of the two is fantastic, great day even though I had a 12 hour nightshift to blow away.Laughing
