Hey richie, did the wind stick around the whole afternoon?

Thought about getting out this arvo, but aborted as the observations looked like they dropped off a bit around 2:30. I can only get out early 1 arvo a week, so figured I would save it for Thursday, looks warmer haha.

Got in a good sail this arvo (late) at VP. Probably 15-20 kts at best, sign of things to come in summer!!! Used my new (2nd hand) 126 Fanatic Eagle with 6.5 sail, really enjoyed it. Very stable and good for blasting, but too heavy to jump. Finished with a home brew with the VP guys.
Good way to end the day.
