Been try to think of a solution for those light wind days for heavy weights in shallow water and thick weed. The problem is you need a big wide board but to make it work you need a big fin. Budgie works best with the smallest fin you can get away with, if you want to get in and out of the shallow thick weed spots. The F2 Vegas Twin 156 works great with 2 x Delta XT 16 in getting into the shallow spots but you still need some wind. So I thought lets try the F2 Ride 185 the biggest production board I could find without a dagger board. But with it having a optional center fin I remembered years back reading a windsurfing mag were they were talking about experimenting with small center fins in slalom racing to improve the upwind ability. So I thought why not stick a small Delta in the central position (the smallest I have at the moment is 16 however if it works I will be getting a 14 to try out ) and a bigger Delta XT in the back. I plan to start off with a Delta XT 22 but am hoping if it works to try smaller Delta XT fins. In the deeper water at Canton I plan to set it up with just a single Delta XT 26. Will give it a go tomorrow to see how it works.
