ALLIES OF THE WAVES
10.30 am Timo: After a quick coffee and fresh croissants chez Denel we made our way to the beach to go sailing. I was champing at the bit to hit the water. I’d been sat in a van for the last 5 hours and was desperate to get wet! It looked pretty light but I knew that there was more than enough for my big gear. The launch itself is like a history lesson on Wissant’s past, with huge barricades set up by the Germans to stop the Allied advance lining the beach. I silently paid my respects to the lives lost on that sand. Sure enough we were all catching waves straight off the bat, they were a pretty good size, a few logo high sets and pretty punchy.
