Yesterday held an awesome surprise - the wind was up! The tide was a little on the low side, as were the waves - but the wind... perfect 5.2 conditions!
I setup the Go Foil NL160 on the 32.5" mast. I used the Ensis 5.2 and the Wide Wing Foiling Board (and will be doing so until I fix the NWFB track boxes).
The wind was so good - I pulled up wind almost to hau bush again - then downwinded back to Towers, then Two Cots and back to the launch - on foil almost the entire session!!! I could never do that with the Armstrong equipment.
I thought I was going faster... Next time the wind is this good (Friday?) I might use the GL140 to see if I can break the 20mph barrier.
The waves were mostly small - but I did get a few of the bigger waves. They didn't stand up for very long. Still a fun session (especially enjoyable when you don't break any gear).
