Not the windiest day to try southend but its always great to check it out.

forecast was base 22mph to 36mph but i noticed local weather report saying some of essex to get 45mph, we didnt get the 45mph.

several locals out plus Stephen Squirrel was in town plus the resident seals were watching us from there perch on the sand bar ! beware tho if we get to close to the sand bar they make a run for it to the water ! a bit nerve racking while doing 30 plus nots tho , thinking the waters is only  3ft deep.
