Ah well, not a lot of sailing to talk about this sunday. I enjoyed the time in the boat with Mike and my little boy, but no amount of wishing could bring the breeze up once it failed.
Disappointment all round but at least the food and tea was good as ever. Still 13 boats includng 1 mirror signed on so things are still going strong on that front. Now I'm looking forward to donning the wetsuit once more on Thursday evening.
As for offering some wisdom on the conditions. Easterlies (approximately) have always been the same at Beer, they never quite get here like they should! I hoped the sun may give us some thermal enhancement and provide us a draft but the haze never allowed it to get going resulting in a breeze vacuum all day. You just can't win them all.
On a positive note, the high dominating current affairs appears to be moving enough to allow for some decents gradients in a couple days time. wa hoo.
