(machine translated in 2023) First autumn storm and still burned.
After a few weeks of calm and warm weather, autumn has really started, in recent days the wind increased more and more and today would be the day with strongest winds. I expected a lot of clouds and rain. At home it rained heavily when I left, but on the way it soon became dry and then no more rain. Around 2 or 3 o'clock it even opened completely and it was lovely in the sun, okay, burned.

Sailed all afternoon with my JP FSW 84II and Ice 4.7. Wind was very constant, 4.7 trimmed at max and often still there on the large side. 4.2 might have been even more fun. Lots of jumping, bit of golfing, couple of "on-your-back-loops". We sailed with Peter all day, and Rob was there for a while. Peter sailed on my AHD Wave almost all afternoon. It has as the smallest board a 110 liter, no success with a 4.7 on the grevelingen with west wind.

The deer has started very well. Hopefully more next weekend.

  (machine translated in 2023) It was great again, normally I take my smaller boom, but still expect to have to rig, so the 165 packed, which is 2 to 3cm too long, but you hardly notice that. Set ran great again. Trim at max, mast foot tap further forward than usual. Was perfect set for today.
