Just went for a look, and the boys are rigged big and standing around talking as not much wind has arrived, everyone's hoping though

Likewise here. ENE 20-30 would be OK at a spot half hour away, glad I didn't get in the car at 0600 cos we have east and about 10-25

Just got back from a chat with the boys and gals and it's more grovelling than planing

Nah don't want the ex back.
My RRD FSW101 is ok but a smidge bigger would be good now I'm fatter. It has the std 28cm MFC Freewave in it.
I also got a 25cm JP FSW fin for when it picks up a bit and I can't be bothered changing down sails, but haven't tried it yet

Hey I saw a water rat once in the river. When I was a grom, sailing at Shelley. Got off in the usual 6" of black mud under 2ft of brown water, fighting thru the reeds to the shore and a rat about a foot long passed me
