Well

Everything was appointing to be a good day on the water, wind prediction appointing to wind around 15 - 20knots and a sunny Saturday afternoon….one phone call to Rui and we were off to our usual spot Cabedelo…..

We arrived around 13h00 and started to rig big, Neilpryde V6 8.0m for me and North Sails 10.0m for Rui and unpacked big boards Fanatic Shark 130 L for me and Starboard Isonic 155 L for Rui……..30 minutes later we where in the water planning around……

That was when my clew rope came out and i had to head to the beach to put it in place….but when arriving at the beach i got struke by a big swell that ripped my kit of my hands and threw it around in the white water until it arrived at the sand with 3 broken battens….it was a relief because there was no mast breakage or sail ripped……..it could have been worse…….

After that i rigged 7.0m went out for a ride and the wind called the day of……well it was the last day i windsurfed in 2009

Let’s hope for windy days in 2010
