Post by: phil_kirk on April 19, 2011, 12:38:32 PM: I understand that the first start on Friday is at 13:00.

Starts get later on each day due to tides so it will be quite a late finish on Sunday.

Post by: phil_kirk on April 25, 2011, 10:21:26 PM: A glorious weekend with some reasonable sailing.

Winds were light force 2-3 mostly single string sailing. To be honest the conditions were perfect for us giving us three days of practice.

Our results were mixed but included a 3rd on race 1. We were close to some of the B14's and int 14's when doing well. Since the Sunday finish was quite late we did not stay for the rest of the results. A protest and some general confusion about race 4 may mean that some rsults are still being calculated.

Camping in the field was made less enjoyable due to several groups of non sailors enjoying the warm weather in an antisocial fashion.

On sunday we saw some wildlife! 2 deer ran through the field 1 crashing into a tent.

It was great to see team EJ and team Shiny and benifit from three day's of sailing.
