is that a sea breeze I spy?

Sounds a bit like yesterday.
Sometimes well powered on a 7 sometimes underpowered on a 9....both on a foil.

What is/was the direction today?

Can't remember the time tbh I think from 12-2.30ish maybe. Got a red face too. We got on the water at 1.20 pm. In my view the wind was a bit holy (up and down), probably because too much E in it. Was ok(ish) on a foil but not much good on anything else. Good to be out though and meet up with some o...

Chance of a Coney foil session Tue pm?

Yikes! Is it that time already.
Hope you all have a great trip.

Sorry to hear that but also very glad I made the right choice for once!

Likewise & thanks for the updates... End of the week looks quite promising though?

A while back I emailed Porthcawl RNLI Point out the value of the weather station to us and asking if there was anything we could do to help improve the reliability. For info, Just had this reply: .......... Hi Dave, We have had the weather data feed to our website updated to use the new API which wa...

Likely enough wind.
Problem is high tide is about 1.30 meaning Rest won’t be doable until 4-4.30.
You could go to Aber...but likely less wind and definitely more chemicals

I’ve posted many times on here about the rnli weather meter, I’ve spoken to them about how bad it is that it doesn’t work. Maybe you and others could also contact them to explain why it’s bad to be stuck like it is. I have just emailed them (address under ‘contacts’ on weather station webpage). Bas...

That was a close one!
So very nearly had 5hrs of wasted driving.
Went for a nice ride in the sunshine instead

Any early eyeball on the wind would be much appreciated. Thinking about a pm session. Suspect there will be wind but may be a bit too much E in it for my liking..always feel a bit uncomfortable going out much past the end of the pier when it’s like that, particularly at this time of year :? Shame th...

I think TUI are pretty reasonable. I checked how much a large sports bag (32kg) would be to Cancun (Mexico) and it was only £64 return!
Just give them a call...that’s what I did. Got an answer v quickly.

I’m thinking/hoping Monday?

Possibly a Coney Foil session Thur or Fri?
