24th march 2012 First sail
it was forcast a good weekend and plenty of sun, so combined with beach clean boat move day i went for a sail
forcast was 7-12knts eastely which never arrived.
alan gould was keen to go out as well, we both waited for the mist to clear and the wind to fill in.
we noticed the wind indicator was moving but the sea state showed otherwise, eventually we took the gamble and launched, alan jumped on board MBM and i had only put the main up. so it was going to be fun.
after some backwards sailing along the beach we eventually paddled our way to some wind. after clearing the pier the wind was good.
we reached up and down 4 or 5 times and then headed back in, when we came to land the wind filled in briefly, typical my luck. later i preped the boat berth for the tracks to go down and next day the boat box was moved to under the stern of the boat.
ready for next week but alas still no crew !! yet
