2nd sail of Season

 well the wind was forecast 6knots from 12pm onward , so it was ideal to take Mutley 93 to bala and have a sail.

with Mutley93 in a berth ERL2007 was rigged for the race, it was baking hot and the race was delayed till 12, i set sail or drift early to see if the wind picked up sooner , it did and we were off , a bad start on the line and we set off on a simple X 3 A 1 X course, we did 2 laps, everyone then decided it was dinner and went in.

ERL stayed out and found good wind and set off down the lake to the weather mark, the wind waas easing so decided to head straingt back rather than visit every mark like last time. As we got closer to the club the wind did pick up and had a nice downwind bit back to the foreshore. the weather was hot and lots of suntan spray was used, the new edition of a big lomax orange box i was able to take the phone and play spotify Pink floyd whilst sailing, what more could u ask 

ERL was put in a newer spot closer to the clubhouse and bedded down , the heat took its toll so i stayed a while trying to recover . pleased that i got out on the boat again .
