Windsurfing spotted in the paper given the 50kt winds we have had today in Melbourne.

Yep it was fun. Only got three runs in before the tide kicked me out.
Another "if only" day
Next wind instalment Saturday with better tides

Thats amazing! With winds like that I can imagine that you were not not even fully sheeted in. Were you?

Rigged 2013 4.2m Koncept and still could not put the power on. Did 44.63 peak standing up sheeted out!

..A .5m sail would be too big for me in those conditions..
