30 July 2006
(machine translated in 2023) Reasonable day on the babblers' bench, wind was predicted, but no clear prediction. All in all, nice sails. RonVO and RJ were also there.

(machine translated in 2023) The wind was rapidly increasing from windlessness. At first I hesitated to take my 6.6, but since Martijn and RJ went on the water with 8.0 - 7.6, I also took slalom set with 7.5. Wind increased rapidly, after fifteen minutes it was unstoppable. People were already taking to the water with 6.0. |

(machine translated in 2023) Quickly rigged, but to no avail, wind almost completely disappeared. Back to the side for my 7.5 |

(machine translated in 2023) Wind came back a bit. And so back on the water. Wind still fell away completely at times. So now often bobbed or stood aside. All in all I think 2 hours sailed. The 7.5 is very good although the wind was very twisty and I sometimes had the idea that I could not walk any height at all... |
