Melville Beach, WA, AU. Short but enjoyable session.   Should have gone out in boardies but put the wetsuit on out of habit.   Was nicely powered on the 8.6 and got a few runs in before wind died off.   Trouble was the tide was too low on the sand bar for the fin so hard to get going once stopped. Coulda gone to deeper water but didn't fancy being stranded a long way from home so chugged back. Wind then shifted more easterly so gave up.   Should have gone earlier as per captains advice to get higher tide and better wind.  Was a nice taste of warm weather though.   8.6 Severne Turbo M4, 120 Tabou Rocket, 28 FF

Quick trip with the big gear. good to see Shane be it only briefly. Great to get a few long runs and a change from the short squal runs of late. Soft weed so hopefully summer will be a good one. Manta 81 evo7.4 delta 22

Delta fins are very useful for getting over the sand bar in spring

I had delta, Fangy's finest and smallest for this sail size, coulda gone 22 but would be spinning like a ballerina.  Smaller sail would mean no spin but no plane.  Still glorious day so not complaining. Brings up a dumb newbie question why you can't stretch the delta concept further and have a much longer but shallower fin...no doubt its been done and a reason why no one has one.
