Sailing on Sunday with a mate. 30 to 42 knots at my favourite reef. Aquaplaning only the fin in the water and totally on the edge. Felt a huge gust coming and hooked out and yep, catapaulted - FINALLY worked out I should LET GO of the boom and board and sail did two complete somersaults (funny word that) and I had to swim for it. And that was with a 4.2. In the end it was too windy to even waterstart and I body dragged myself in to shore. Any tips on body dragging???

Thanks Stribo, that's pretty much what I did. It was pretty crazy out there. I felt a little silly hanging on to the boom whilst I flew through the air. Body dragging was fun though, the water is pretty warm. Would have been good to do a FASTER body drag but.

You been sanding it too much?

I think I'm safe but you guys with the big fins might be in trouble if the sharks got hungry
