pleasure sail 20th april

new crew gary burlsden turned up and had never been on a dart 18
wind was light and sunny. we headed off toward old harry and made good progress, we neared the race and then decided to head back in swanage bay, it didnt take us long and the wind got lighter and then picked up as gary took the helpm for some lessons. we reached up and down a few times and explored a bit of the coast and then headed in.
Sailing time 1h 55 wind 8 knts max 13knts and sse to se and very warm.
