TOPIC: Saturday 7/09/22

Saturday 7/09/22 2 years 4 months ago #1

Cool day. ENE to NE wind. 6.3 Severne Freek with Severne Psycho 102 and Ultra Maui Fins 24 cm Style again. Wind was on either side of the "planing threshold" - 15+ mph. I need to find out what number that is. I need to go out with a hand held wind meter. No wind foils, none of the old legacy string-kite foils, and none of the new stringless kite-wing foils were out. Just me and the sailboats, looked like 5 to 7 Flying Scots - teaching and racing. I stayed out of their way. Fun day.

Sometimes you have to pray to the wind gods.

I've never been on gear this agile in such light wind. :woohoo:

Flying Scot and cabin cruiser further back. Susan raced. She used me as a jibe mark pre race when I was schlogging. :lol:
