Fathers day foil

I did get up on the foil briefly on Father's day. There was a bit of wind between several season opening chores at the Launch Pad.

It was a lot of work pumping to get on a plane 4 times. My heart rate when pumping the sail definitely correlates to my board speed!

But there really wasn't enough wind. 7-9 knots with the odd 10 knot gust. I need just a bit more than that to get the 6.5 going - even with the new front wing on the foil.

Oh well, here's hoping Canada Day weekend is better.
