Good session but very hard going getting back upwind with 4 knot current outgoing tide 0.4m Low. First run was the quickest 2 hours before low .Flatter as tide dropped but so did the wind and became patchy. Very broad NW rounding up at end of the run into the reef a couple of times. Perhaps should have been sailing deeper into chop! Short fast run and plenty of water at low as not peaking in the shallows!!

Would have been more comfortable with 5.8 bagged out at times.

Fun downwind with one gybe back to Marine Parade before tide came in. 27cm  cleared any shallow spots although was a bit worried sailing at full speed!!
