Got stuck out at Coal pt last night when the wind turned offshore & dropped..eventually managed to sail in after about an hour..? ( felt like it )..but at one stage I decided to lay the rig over the board ,lie on it & paddle in..Yeah.looks ok on paper..It was dead flat & no wind & I made so little headway it was useless.[}:)].125ltre board + 6.6m sail dragging in the H20.I'd hate to try it in a wind..I didnt take the rig out of the board..are you supposed to? I'm glad I didnt as I went back to 'sailing' and the wind turned back very light crossshore & I got in. If Id taken the rig out ( assuming I could) I wouldnt have been able to get it back in..
Turned me off short boards in iffy conditions..

let me put it out there.
yes its a water sport forum with a general discussion forum.
HOWEVER when contributers create bad vibes by continually ramming stuff into our faces about topics that are repetitive, and we are sick of, then create bad vibes again by constant complaints about the results of their actions, i think they should clam up and think they are lucky not to be kicked off all together.

this is supposed to be a community of people enjoying stuff on line. if you dont do it, stay away. find somewhere else to carry on please. seabreeze is going to be known as "sooky la la its your fault not mine" forums.
