Reminds me of The Ray at South End. Glassy smooth but instead of a dog you get the seals watching.

Genetrix, I'm pretty sure that was the first run of the day at about 8am as I remember Craig's elegant dismount! The wind would have been about 25-30 knots then.

A bit latter than that and i did a few of those dismounts at the end,no wind. No wind near that buoy either, i didn,t mean to go that close, the sail stalled just before it. Heart in mouth when i went past that one. But that was my best Nm run so it was worth it.

OPH the only way to find your Carbon Art down here is to have some different colors, they,re a bit like flea,s on a dog. No good looking at the sail or fin either as most have a Ka bolted to the top and bottom

Smooth operator Mr. Hollins ... very smooth .. the more I watch the smoother it gets, specially the mid section.

Who was the speedie at the start of the run?

I'm not suprised Shelby's dog was barking mad, seeing you coming at speed, helmet clad in command of a green ufo

Pedro e (Pete) was at the start. Mal alas has been missing for a long while and Matt as yet hasn,t posted. He was trying some different boards so his speeds weren,t his usual best.
All this watching of our nice smooth water is just going to send you to a travel agent and Pawn Broker. I glad you lot exported "Us" to this orible place of "Milk and Honey"
