Wind Journal for Berend de Boer
Friday September 15, 2006, 2:45p-5:30p

16th session in 2006
Sailed at Auckland, Coniver Grove
Wind from the SW (knots)
        lulls: 8
        average: 14
        gusts: 23
Rated a 9 of 10

Board: BIC Nova
Sail: NP V8 8.5 2002
Fin: Select Ride 50
Suit: XCel 4/3 infinity x-zip.

Excellent wind for my big sail. After a while I even had some gusts that almost got me changing to a small board, but those were just a few gusts. It was a fairly steady 12 knots or so I reckon with 14 or 15 knot gusts for nice runs.

My jibing went quite well. Not completely planing I think, but very close. I still tend to loose my spad in the second half of the turn. And it isn't easy to swing a big sail very fast.
