Hello from Tuesday, here in Lignano. A slighlty different day today which Alan noticed at 0700 on his customary flat 20 mile ride [ today in 58.40] - not bad on an old bike.
There was an onshore breeze with a bit of chop which carried on all day and started to die away late in the afternoon.
The breeze was shifting a lot and within the start sequence it shifted a lot, being really aware of what was happening- was essential
Sarah scored a 14 after a great start in race 2 but after a nearly great pin end start in race 3 suffered a shocker. Karyina scored a useful 20 but then had a black flag to finish the day off with.
The boys came out and then we raced around for lots of continious racing, which was possible because each colour was only racing itself for the day.
David had a very good day scoring 4,17, and 8 [ which was 3rd at the gate]. David is lying 8th.Benno scored a great 2nd, then a 21 and then suffered a tough start at the boat for a 50 [ gulp].
Happy Benno
Unfortunately my camera failed when Tim Cropley went oppy sailing yesterday, which was a great sight to see but only a few of us witnessed it.
Poker Sailor Face
We played a game where each sailor had to stand up infront of the group and the group had to try to make the sailor smile. It was really funny and put a smile on everyones face.
More news tommorrow.
Bye now.
Good job guys! Light winds good results... you are turning to be Greek!
