Well still wind, after days forecasts of no or no wind. When everyone arrived, everyone seemed to be bobbing, but 5 minutes later everyone was planning again. Not really much wind, but just enough for my Thommen.

After 2 laps bobbing up in the bay, the wind picked up to enough to plan. So sturdy, in fact, that I went to grab the Thommen 275. |

Just enough power to get into Plane with the Thommen. Pumping doesn't really work
on that narrow thing. After some trimming, I was able to walk reasonably high with it. The wind just wasn't enough to set top times. But still 54.1km/h not really bad. |

Wind seemed to subside a bit. So back on the water with the Bee. Also ran fast, but running height and by planing in the wind holes was much better.
Just kicked a shell through my shoe so I went to the side to check my foot and grab the Thommen 275. |
