Lake George, SA, AU   ...WooHoo.... A PB.     First sail at Lake George.     First session on my 5.9m Loft 02 which is my smallest sail, apart  from a 4.5. wave sail.     Luckilly Decrepid lent me a weed fin or I would have been buggered.    Unfitness and old age caused me to be soon  overpowered so I came in.     Mike was changing down so he let me use his 5.3m sail and I had another session and got my PB.    Cam had told me about the conditions here and he was spot on.     Mal  Faulkner and Mike were having a ball.     The wind was from the north so we never went to spit, but I think wind will swing to South tomorrow, so we will drive the rough road.    all told there were 9 carloads of sailors today.   Used my Gunny Runner with a 24 weed fin.

Pelican Point, WA, AU : Koncept 7.5, iSonic 107, Volt 38

 

Finally got the correct mast for this sail after using a Naish mast for the last year or so. Spent most of the session figuring out the settings, quite different and feels a lot different now too. With about 2cm more downhaul it still sets deeper in the lower half and with more twist up top; and the loose leech twists off much smoother whereas before it would kind of flop around if I used this much downhaul, unless in a strong gust.

Well done Herby! 30 coming up very soon!

Squiddy, amazing the difference a KA mast makes in a Koncept, although they rig well on NP too.

Herby mate. That's fantastic and so happy for you. You just beat the rain out of here and trust your travel plans are going to plan. Suppose we'll see you with a new speed board and a few new fins in the back of the van when you get back, that's if you come back. Keep it up mate, great effort.
