summer 1 08 06 2014

after my 1h43m solo sail i came back to the beach to be greeted by gary parrot who was going to crew.
we launched into very light winds.
we messed the start up and started 2 mins late, my fault but  as it was my first race of the season .
we managed to over take a few boats that got tangles on the first mark. then it was hunting down gary and also mark.  we did manage gary but i too got caught on mark 1.
we did out 360 and carried on. the wind was very light and not exciting at all.
gary did well and we got on ok. helmed on the way back in
2h 09m  9.64 miles

total for the day
3h52     20.07miles

08th 06 2014 solo sail

today  was my first sail since my incident .
wind was light but began to build. launched at 0810 and sailed for 1h43m 10.43 miles
pratising sailing with no jib  and tacking  etc.  had a good sail. flew a hull a few times.
weather was really sunny, a pleasure  to be on the water.
