southend 30th dec and it was warm and sunny

southerly direction making it square on west course and port tack on east course , early start on the road by 5 am , on water by 830 , great to finally hook up with chris freeman from black project fins ,had a good sail for an hour , i did 3 runs on the east course which wasnt enough for a good average :( , crashed out on the 3rd run , hitting my boom as i landed and seeing stars for a bit ,glad i had a helmet on !!!

so went for a couple more runs then packed in , should have manned up really as wind picked up again and i missed the best bit , oh well next time

super stoked for young scotty , almost the big 40 mate , well done you

crap result for me but you have to post good and bad ah ,finger crossed well be back there at the weekend

was great to see so many speedies out , too many bloody kites though :)ha ha
