winter fun series 11.11.12

                                                                                                                                                                                        the weather was really sunny but cold, we launched at 10am as Lauren had to be away for 1145 or so.
we worked on getting the boat going and trapezing, the wind was nice further out in the bay. had some good blasts and Lauren was happier with going out on the wire, this was our first sail for 6 weeks, ropes getting tangled and jib trimming was the order of the day, around 11am we headed over to do the mini races around a few marker bouys in the harbour area, the first start was crazy more mike a match race start, we were gybing and tacking as the lasers were everywhere. finally after a bad start but close to the line we were off and we caught up to the front almost, the wind was very light. a final blast into the bay and we headed back in. 1h 45 mins on the water, not bad for the first winter sail
