Sanctuary Point, NSW, AU 15-20kt SSW || Exocet RS6, 8.4TR, 38 Tectonics Weed Demon

Sailed early and I thought it wouldn't last long with the 8.4, but it didn't pick up as much as forecast. Stretched me out a few times, but the TR has such a great wind range and was very manageable for the entire session. First real hit out with the Weed Demon. Fantastic top end, but down low it let go a few times before coming off the plane (mainly if a little chop in the mix). Maybe this is because 38cm seems like a slightly small weed fin size for the combo (?), but still I'm confident - for a weed fin of its size it has a very large base and large surface area. Nice quiet morning on the Basin.

Fun in the southerly off the Shell station. 5.7m NP Hellcat and started off on the JP FSW 92L and was in the zone for a while but wind variable so changed to the 104L iSonic which required some serious concentration to avoid sticking the nose into the rather large chop/wind swell. Once was enough and nearly removed my feet from my legs. First time over 50km distance and starting to feel it now!!
