yer but with windsurfing you can sail in higherwinds cos you can downsize your size sail to something not much bigger than an opie size sail. |

This was what greeted us! Needless to say no boats were allowed out! The windsurfers enjoyed themselves though! Well all four that dared to go out! |

went out in the 49er yesterday in the plymouth sound. morning was perfect, about 18-20knots, we had a awesome kite leg, but very overpowered upwind. we went in for lunch then as we came back out, it picked up to about 25-30knots, we went upwind for a few hundred yards, and were flying, but cudnt bear-away coz of the power!!. in the end we dropped the main and taxied in, was still shifting on the jib alone....

Racing cancelled, only myself and 1 other 4.7 sailor went out and had a real blast. We couldn't beat, but we sure as hell had fun downwind!!! |
