Summer is definitely on the wain and we'll soon be in the waste land that is winter in Long Beach. But the club was relatively quite even though there was the Halloween regatta, and not too many power boats out. 12pm no wind, 1pm a bit, by 1:30 full foiling and what an epic days sail. Went down not expecting too much and had just an awesome 3 hours. Zack joined in the fun for last 90 mins. It was a tack gybe fest. Water was flat as and about 12 knots breeze. Really worked on the tacks and speed through the gybes. Happy I seem not to be waggling the tiller like a virgin at a viking landing anymore. Managed to gybe all the way down the channel without falling off foils, first time ever. Also found nice new setting on the wand angle, nice and high till bolt slipped back, and Zack helped me set my sail up way flatter than I ever thought I should. So thats what the 8:1 down hauls for!
So to the comments section, please add in style scores, tips or just plain abuse.....
Till ABYC Moth Fest on 13th 14th over and out.............
