Wednesday
After a total blow-out yesterday, we presented the opposite conditions with not enough wind! Race officer David Lovegrove had his hands full with the unsuitable weather conditions, but he and his team made all the right decisions on a very difficult day.
Eventually, after a false dawn and much waiting afloat, a breeze filled in and a race was started. On the second attempt (under a 'U' flag start) the fleet got away on a windward-leeward course with about 5 knots of wind, which decided to slowly die off and then build again through the one-lap shortened race to test even the most experienced squibbers...
