So, all you lucky boys n girls that had the day off/had a sudden case of the flu, how was it? what'd the rest of us miss? I see a 40knt gust on the garden island wind metre, anyone manage to catch that one?
Fully lit on 4.7
(apologies to Mr 'slave)
Just enough to grovel in the lulls but planing 90% of the time, and able to just hold it in the big ones. Grinning...... 
A bit too strong for me on a 5.0m at Melville. Wind around 20-28,gusting late afternoon 35's.
Prefer 18-22 knots on my 5.7m, more laid back sailing.
was out on a 5.0 and my new stoney today, head plus high and absolute joy, really really good sail, 
Butt-clenching terror on a 6.6 at Melville. 
Got smashed in the big gusts, but managed to hang on most of the time.
Classic winter sailing i.e. mad outta control fun
