Thank you Cape Town
As it was gusty I decided on 6.0m2 only to realize I did not have the matching mast
So I rigged the 7.3m2 which was perfect in the lulls and took me upwind.
then the wind increased steadlily to a bold 28knots.
I managed to get some nice top speeds on the polar of 57-58km/h
Great session overall even if shorter than expected.
Amazing weather, a fire in distance clouded the lake.
The ducks where giving way to my speedy run.
Had to adjust the sail on the end but just great session.
again Cape Town, Thank you
