    Well, THAT was interesting!

    Moderate NW, so not able to do home beach, so decided to try a new ( to me) spot - Singing Sands.

    Actually nice spot, with a slightly cross swell launch area - the main problem, as i happened to discover, is the ferry actually has to do a dogleg right near the beach- and i realized this just i dropped off the foil when the wind died:-( and saw said ferry approaching- luckily though, with a bit of vigorous pumping, was well clear by the time it arrived.

    Won't be making that mistake again!
