Waiting...

Yesterday we waited.

Today we are waiting....

Too much wind. Which is interesting, particularly for a place that is renowned to be light wind!

We woke this morning to the sound of pounding seas, rain and howling wind! At that point I decided I would not be going out in a Rib, but stay in the club and watch from the window. (Apparently this is summer!!!!).

It's about lunchtime now and in hind-sight, it's a shame the race committee did not send the fleet out mid-morning because there was a window of opportunity of about 18 knots, gusting to 23. I wish they had started. What am I going to write about in my press release today???

Unsure as to if they will sail tomorrow either! First the forecast was good (15-20), but apparently the latest forecast is for it to be blowing. Again.

Oh well.

Remember to keep up to date with the WAGS reports at www.int-moth.org.uk

See below a few pics taken yesterday while the sun shone.
