(machine translated in 2023) Wind came earlier today than yesterday, but was also much gustier and also less strong. And unfortunately had to stop again at 16:00. Hans and Jurjen were also there, but Jurjen did not sail and Hans walked in the bandage, arm out of the socket.

11:00 0.5 hour Wind: N/NE 12/16 kts
Board: F2 Thommen 275 - North Shore Ultra Slalom 36cm
Sail: Arrows Tomahawk 6.8 - Arrows Ultimate Move 460cm - Arrows Ultimate Race 190-240
  (machine translated in 2023) Wind seemed to pick up and was looking forward to a day of speed. Thommen with 6.8 rigged, seemed small, and also turned out to be too small. Only the gusts were strong enough.
11:30 3.5 hour Wind: N 12/19 kts
Board: Fanatic Bee 124 Ltd - Select Eagle L 43cm
Sail: Arrows Duell 8.1 - Arrows Lance55 490cm - Arrows Ultimate Race 190-240
  (machine translated in 2023) Been tearing up with the 8.1, also practicing with a higher boom, but that did not give better speed and cost with this wind with a lot of upwind. In the bouts it was hard work. The trim system is also very good, especially in this kind of gusty wind.
15:30 0.5 hour Wind: N/NW 12/17 kts
Board: F2 Thommen 275 - North Shore Ultra Slalom 36cm
Sail: Arrows Tomahawk 6.8 - Arrows Ultimate Move 460cm - Arrows Ultimate Race 190-240
  (machine translated in 2023) Wind seemed to pick up and I almost had to leave. Thommen with 6.8 was still on the side so I would like to give it a try. Better than at the beginning of the day but still too little wind.
