On arrival after work I saw my sailing mate change his mind, not bother rigging and going home. As soon as he left the rigging area the wind picked up. I rigged big and went on my biggest board with a huge fin. This was a bad decision which saw me having to walk through the shallows 200yds due to the spring low tide to change my board and fin. Then it was a good 2 hours of gybe practice and gust chasing. No special top speeds today but some really good after work sailing.
We are now moving into a prolonged period of high pressure which looks to be staying at least a week. I will get out on the paddleboard for fitness and if 10knots appears then some light wind sail flicky stuff as well.
