After almost 2 weeks without being on the water I got to the Launch Pad just as a squall came through gusting up to 30 knots. I waited for the rain to end and caught some photos of the nice rainbow.
I searched my 424 posts in this 11 year blog and there are only 3 others that have the word rainbow in it. So I guess it is smaller than 1/100 occurrence to be out windsurfing and seeing a rainbow!

I headed out with the old 6.5 NP V6 and the 99 cm foil under the Stingray 140. I caught 4 nice foils before the wind backed off. My two jibes were slow but it was fun to foil downwind looking into the rainbow.

| Had to get out a bit to find the gusty NW wind. |

| It took a bit of pumping to get my 5 foil runs… 4.8 km in 38 minutes |
While the air was down to 12c, it was amazing to have the water still showing 17c at this time of year.
My cold Hatteras guys’ reunion starts tomorrow with some wind in the forecast - let’s hope the wind stays around for a few days… but there are lots of other activities on deck too.
