Hi PK nice vid. Is that a SUP board your daughter is on? we have a 10'6 NSP with a mast base screw in point thinking about getting a learner rig for our kids. What size sail were you using in the 29 knots? We are going to camp at Elliston caravan park over Australia Day holiday. Look forward to meeting you and some other sailors hopefully might learn something.

Cheers Al

Hey Al,
Elsie was using a SUP with a 3.3 sail. The wind was 15-20 on those days so she had a bit of a battle going on at times. Other days she uses sails a bit bigger.
The 29t bit was me on another board with a Bamboo deck.
Catchya at Elliston.

Hey Maris, you have the spot covered. Turn left just as you hit Farm Beach and go down the road a few k's. SW is the best. That day was 15kts and a bit at times. These are my tracks from that day. Short but flat and quick runs behind the spit.
