Starboard 9'8 x 29
Tushingham Rock 5.7m
Wind 12 knots

geez, did you forget to turn around???

Hahaha yeah well I did press record on the GoPro and when I got to my destination I pressed stop. Then before I sailed back I pressed record again. This gave me two videos to upload on to my computer. The first one took too long so I couldn't be bothered with the second.
So to answer your question, yes I did turn around.
I did 6kms in two tacks and finished where I started

Nice Greenie.. yeah.. We need some jibes and tacks next time..

I remember that sport, It requires thinking instead of grunting.

Next time I will do some gybes and tacks. Otherwise it does make for a boring vid
Will also get it in some waves when we get some swell and a bit more wind so I can use a smaller sail

I had John Butler for music but YouTube wouldnt let me use it.
This vid is on a Starboard Evo Twin which is about 70 litres smaller than the 9'8.
Gybes, tacks, a couple of failed backloops and a forward loop which ended in a splat and waterstart

Would they make a good learner windsurfer Greenie?

Yeah I'm sure you could learn to windsurf on the 9'8
