Hurricane Lowell is starting to make it's turn to the north. I figured it would be a good day to get a Foil Drive session in (before the surf gets unruly).
Dawn patrol saw a pretty low tide (0.3'), super light wind and head high swell on the sets.
No.43 with the AFS UHM 80cm mast, Silk 850/Usurf 135
I did want to start experimenting with the motor pod located further down the mast - this is the result with the next slightly longer motor cable.
Getting out past the breakers sucked a little -
And there was a little warble in the water.
Dennis and Noel were out on Foil Drive. Rick and Makana were out prone.
I did get several good rides - but then that warble turned into me taking off and losing it. Four times straight.
I turned the board over to see what was wrong - the rear stabilizer was really loose. Time to go in.
With the rear stabilizer issue, I only got eleven rides -
I may try to get an evening session in seeing as how this one was cut short.
