Mat caught a some images of me launching here, I am glad I took the 7.5m and 128L Mistral Screamer especially due to the buoyancy situation when sailing on fresh water.
The lake police fine you if you do not wear a life jacket of some sort, it wasn't just the beers on the journey down that added to my upper body size.
Due to the light wind conditions here, Mat had to resort to taking some of my higher volume equipment out, I will let him tell you about his walk of shame. I would just say it maybe worth taking a taxi fair with him next time.
