Ok all,
Well apart from a windy start where 28 came up on the gauges it was a very nice 17 to 20 knots from the SW. Sooooooo much better then the 0 to 8 knots from everywhere that we had been experiencing lately.
TWU crossed in front of Syrenka towards the first mark, and yes there was a strange silence onboard as Syrenka dip us :-I But the normal chatters went on when Syrenka’s bow sprit was a safe distance away from us :-)
Although you would all be happy to know we returned the favour on the first kite leg as our prodder was just off their stern for most of the run!
John was on the kite winch grinding like a fat kid eating a cup cake very impressive! Sorry guys, if the skip can do it then no fancy electric winches for us on the new boat ;-)
A crowd lined the shores waiting on a glimpse of the legendary Red Rocket but alas not today was the word from the brains trust.
Things are heating up as we come into business end of the series all I can say is “BRING IT ON”
