The trouble with forecasts is you are always tempted to believe them.
So you get to the beach and it is blatantly not windy, blatantly sunny and blatantly warm but even with the evidence in front of your eyes you are going....but its meant to be windy rainy and cold....the forecast said so!
So last week we had planned the week around testing, Ian has a modified 5 batten sail ( V1.2 if you like) and Andrew wanted to try out his tri fin Witchcraft in single and tri fin modes to compare and contrast. We got some done, but the 7 days of howling winds didn't quite materialise... still there is always tomorow, the forecast says its going to be windy.....
