Hard enough doing it on flat water let alone that lot which you boys call home.

Good stuff Steve, scoring a consistent 30+ over a NM with the gusts yesterday when you did, and dodging all those "keep the waves friendly" Zylooms has to be a huge achievement.
Well done.
Noticed Slowboat Fri afternoon, bolts a 7.5 on his CA tiny speed board just to see what it would do. Took off big grin, last I saw of him was blasting towards Point Majestic

As a additional note

just to rub a bit of salt into the wound, Steve sent me an email which I have Pasted here

i had actually got off the water in disgust and started to unrig when i saw the front come down the river i jumped back in the water and rode the front of the gust down through the flats, which are now as weedy if not worst than hardies!!! using the weed fin.
i sailed the whole distance un hooked in anticipation of a catapult!
in this case the cloud had a silver lining so to speak!;)



Gnarley 2mins @+30 unhooked

Huge
Respect
