Up at 3am to get down to Dungarvan early to catch the tide.
Rigged and ready by 7am, and just waiting for the sun to rise enough to see the course!
Angle and tide were perfect, but just not windy enough, and only wind on the fist half of the course.
No real gusts or squalls, so no chance of getting good speeds.
Still, if you don't go, you don't know!
Alternator went on van on way home, and I barely made it back to Dublin before the van's electrics shut down....
which probably rules out tomorrow's adventure, a new spot in NW Donegal we want to try out - somewhere that is always shed-loads windier than Dungarvan - and straight in from Atlantic so nothing to get in the way or slow down the wind. Watch this space
