If it looks like averaging above 15 knots I'll be down there.
Good fun session down there today with not a lot more than that, up to 22 knots maybe at times.
Light to moderate easterlies are a totally different story to the strong westerlies.
Not the same adrenalin buzz of course, but smoother water and steadier winds.
You can sail on higher tides, which means less walking around the channels.
Non stop easy fun.

And with a low hanging around, there's alway a chance it might shift position a bit and kick up to 25+.
