JT Melville Beach (Lucky Bay)

Realised this morning that I hadnt patched the hole I put in my sonic on Sunday so only took the CA Speed, then rigged for the forecast rather than the conditions and put up the 5.8 – then after waiting a while the rain came and for about 20 minutes it was great !

Elapsed time 136 minutes, trave time 100.48 minutes, distance of 16.93 Km is 9.14 Nms so an average speed of 5.45 Knots – thats about what it felt like as well ! I think that is a brisk walk.

JT Pinnaroo Pt

Pinnaroo – didnt think there would be enough wind but was pleasantly surprised. 6.5 Ezzy ?, Sonic 95

Cruised up to the marina and then ran back , no surprise that top speeds were all on run back.

JT Pelican Point – Pinnas team meeting ;-)

Great to get on the water – feels like ages since the last sail (I know it was only a week but even so!)

Got to use my new (Marcels old) 6.5 for the first time, a bit of outhaul made it rotate much better ! Used the sonic 95 but kept thinking of the CA sitting in the car but I dont think there was enough wind to use it and now I will never know.
