Dec 19 - Lac Bay




4410km

Lac Bay, Bonaire, Caribbean Netherlands
2015 Sailworks Retro 6.5, 1990 Hi-Tech 8'9", Wind: 15 gusting to  20 knots.

Per yesterday, I used the 8'9" Hi-Tech and the 6.5 Retro. Caught the tail end of the 12 PM wind and got in one good run before struggling for a couple of hours. The 4 PM wind bump was excellent and I got in a couple of good runs that confirmed my thoughts of yesterday. Looking forward to more bump-n-jump days :).
The one downside of the Retro/Hi-Tech combo is that it does not point well to get up wind. Will need to try the Point-7 AC-One or Gaastra Phantoms to see if the non-cambered sail is the issue.
