    Challenging early morning. I misread conditions or they simply kept changing. One moment, I'm flying, next moment, strong morning ebb combined with softening wind left me hanging in the gybes. What can I say? It was good when it was good and it sucked when it wasn't. Wind was less consistent than yesterday and just...less. I swam back to shore three times. Not a great for a sinker. Still had a lot of fun and water was warm. RB crew well represented again with Shags and BWD on downwinders. I am sure if I had been able to wait it out, conditions would have improved but I had family reasons for needing to back on the road to Vic by 10:30am.
