I'll send you a text Jimbob is that the new Nomad fin? I just got a couple more like 3 new fins to try
Gee the last 300m of my NM run I slowed and went upwind thinking that I had gone far enough, hit 40knts 4 times in my run, Hamma and myself only got one good go at it but didn't make the most from it.
We now know whats needed I think a 39knt NM is possible on a good day down there

JimBob sounds like you are having waaaaaaaaaaaaayyyy too much fun, look forward to hearing all about it

Hey Stringer, haven't used it yet but I have been using the 23cm lock/Ka assy fin in the 85 with 6.3m-5.5m and it's fine doesn't let go on starboard tack upwind got to finesse it so it doesn't spinout had max speed of 40.17knts(37knt average) and 40.41knts last trip down to Lake George, great combo for flat water but in chop need a bigger fin.
Hopefully get to try the delta speed weed 25 by the weekend, the Falcon 85 is a super board

ive got the symetrical 23 KA fin but havent tried it in the falcon, not sure that i will either... been looking for a bigger weed fin for that board. my max speed on that board was 40kn with a 30cm FO weedy so im sure with something in between 23 and 30 theres another few knots there for sure! i think i want a 25cm delta or the c3 alternative

Great pics choco, hopefully get a sail there on my way back from Wa in Jan.

Izaak make sure you pm me and we will catch up for a sail and I can show you around,
