Firts ever deep water start, which wasn't as bad as I feared. Suit compensates nicely! Start was easy, but difficult to pick up white turn buoy against the white boats anchored in the harbour! Panicked badly on the way to the beach as it seemed a long way off! Couldn't get control of my breathing again. Horrible!
