It's a long time since I visited Lyme and that was back in my water ski days, but from memory Lyme has quite a well defined and spaced wave length, our problem up here is a very nasty steep but short chop, which in a south westerly on starboard out to sea has you bucking like a clown in a rodeo even in boats with quite long waterline length, it is Contender Country when it's windy.
I'm thinking of to hell with it I'll give it a go anyway, and keep the EPS for lightwind days, it sounds like sailing a windsurfing short board which means banging the corners which I don't really like having to do at Hythe as more often than not it's a one sided beat and often the confined side is the one to go. |

I should add... that it's only going to be a bit nosey trapezing hard off wind in the nastiest short chop, and all you'd do is sit in and hike it and go deeper.
