A big thanks to Simon for being the only one keen to sail today. I nearly didn't go out today when 70 knot gusts were being recorded at South Devon early this morning. In the end it was very nice to sail on the small speedboard with 5m. The wind was strong and perfect for high speeds but the angle was totally square meaning the only chance of getting decent speeds was to bear into the chop. After half an hour or so I got used to things and had a few nice slingshots over towards the other side. Really not a day for averages today but this wind strength with 30-40 degrees more angle would nigh on be perfect. It's probably not a place to use a weight jacket and I'm glad I didn't since the mud really drains your energy and I had a real scare getting out finding myself in waist deep mud on exit. Glad to be home safe and sound!
