pratice sail 19th May 2012 / 20th May DNS race praticed

Gary and I changed the new main sheet rope and then headed out for a trapeze session. downwind the wind was good and we said jokingly we would go to old harry, there was some wave but not that we noticed, however when we were well out of the bay i looked back and seen the waves and thought better of it to carry on,
we got into the bay again ok, and then we practised Gary on the trapeze, he did very well and really enjoyed it, the wind picked up a fraction and after about 1 1\2 hours we headed back in because we were on safety duty for the after noon's Durlston race.

on Sunday the wind was stronger and NE, we headed out and found it choppy.
the race was delayed for a few boats over, one of them a moth which went over pevrill and was rescued by the RNLI. we stayed out for a about 45 mins and then came back in, the race didnt get under way until 1145

we both agreed it was out of our comfort zone and we wanted back in. but we did have a good pratice while we were out there.
