Pure survival session, actually it was no fun at all, but I just wanted to have a go on the sail. I should have rigged it with a 340 mast, but took only a 370, so the sail was very on-off with very little loose leech and that made it an accident waiting to happen in these conditions. On the jetty in the harbour Koen measured 58 kts. I only had about 4kilo of lead, way to little. The water was comming over the stone wall, so sometimes I had a very limited view and ofcourse it made the water far from flat. the wind was that strong that I could only waterstart hooked in because the harnesslines were simply "flying around" and after 2 runs only on the arms, I was exhausted.

Then I took a long break and durig that break the wind "dropped" considerably. I guess about 10-12 kts. So when I went out again, I sailed pretty relaxed with this combo, but it were far from ideal conditions to set PR's, the "law of diminishing return" you know.

but after all I was happy to have gone anyway.
