Wind was F5 to 6 about 20 degrees of dead onshore. From what I can gather from people locally it was carnage, many boats/masts broken. Having been there, the Texel beach also has a strong undertow on it so depending which side of the 20 degrees the wind was you end up with a strong tide taking you away from the wind and big (2m+) waves pushing you back onto the beach. About 600 entered, 200+ started and about 120 finished. |
