Wife took kids and two friends for a windsurfing lesson at the MadLoop Windsurfing school. Bit too windy perhaps, but they enjoyed. I came later to see their progress, but was a bit too late to actually see them.

My wife had a go as well this time, but the wind was just too gusty. I first started with the 7.2, but it was just too gusty so I tried the smaller board and sail, but even that didn't work. The gusts were fine, but in between I was just floating in the water waiting for enough wind to waterstart.
