Ok,



If having 2 weeks off isn't stressful enough (No really - long and complex story but I actually wish I was work!!)



Imagine the scene - It the first day on the water since New years day - I have a lift to carsington - all systems go........



No F*^%&^G B"!$Y P*&%!(G A**Eing wind - and it was raining!! I had left my 11m at home due to transportation difficulties.



Needless to say there was a large mard, sorry to the people who witnessed it - I have seen 10mph sunny and 15oC on Sunday in Carsington so here's hopeing!!



Hope people have better hunting than i did over the next few days!!

Recipe for Sailing in 10 mph: Serves 1 (V happy sailor)



1) Take 1 11m 5cam race sail - RS1 will suffice

2) Take a 1m wide board and attach the supplied 70cm fin

3) Take 3 friends whos only aim sems to be going quicker than you.



Mix for 3-4 hours (preferable on setting sunny and at a temp of 15-25oC)



By the end you should realise that sailing is about being on the water, with your friends in great locations.



If you don't, you've missed something!!



Serious point though - yeah it's great sailing v short boards in stong winds in mast high waves - So people tell me!! But how often does this happen??



I use big kit so I don't miss that many days.
