April 20 - Lac Bay

 Lac Bay, Bonaire, Caribbean Netherlands

2014 Sailworks Retro 5.5, 2014 JP Magic Ride 118, MFC 32

Since I have not exercised in a long time, doing it on the water is hopefully a quick way to get back into shape. But not there yet.

Out of curiosity, decided to sail a board that has been in the garage for about five years now and still in pristine condition. After the harsh ride of the iSonic, this board reminded me of my old Hi-Tech Gorge bump and jump boards. Much softer ride, easier to jibe than the iSonic (duh), and at my slow speeds, essentially as fast as the iSonics. Guess what board has just become my favorite while I attempt to get back into shape?

April 19 - Lac Bay


Lac Bay, Bonaire, Caribbean Netherlands

2014 Sailworks Retro 5.5, 2015 iSonic 107, MFC KP 360, 1985 Hi-Tech Carbon Slalom 9'

Two short sessions as the old muscles started cramping. Guess I need to sail more than once every 3-4 weeks... Great to be on the Hi-Tech and was slightly faster on it, if one isn't too critical of the actual speed. 

Great to have a chance to chat with Manouk, the team's newest member and focused speedsailor!
