Not a lot of time left after work but managed to con Dave into a quick blast.

After seeing the local smiley tooth dolphin on the news last night, and seeing Dave take the first swim of the day was reassuring. No legs or arms lost today.

Unfortunately the swim for Dave was from a nasty catapult and he has the shoulder pain to show for it tonight..... the burns on the shoulder back on the beach looked very uncomfortable to say the least Yell

Thought i was sailing faster than I was, but turned out I was too far offshore and in the crazy chop, while Dave smashed me on the calmer inshore conditiions. i did feel like I had perfected the best "slow down move" after a fast outofcontrol offwind run, I think its called the "Stretch butt crash" slow down move..... learnt it from watchiing the King of Glory Holes!!!  Wink

Lots of normal dolphins around tonight, but still not quite summer yet hey!

OOOOOOWWWWCCHH!!!!

Should have used the lower clew hole.

Should have used a 50 or 46 fin.

Should have used the 7.0.

Should have taken the JPSS125 for a spin.

Should have been out earlier.

Should have not gone so hard straight away.

Should not have flown the fin so much.

WOULD HAVE COME IN UNINJURED!!!

Geez Dave, hope that it's only bruising mate and nothing is broken. Nothing worse than too much lift from the fin - resulting in an injury. I know it oh too well....
