Hi,

I didn't check my emails before leaving home on Sunday... I assumed that the fact there was only 1 knot in Browns Bay meant that there was at least 10 knots at BPP.

Turns out there was!

(not quite.)
The wind started picking up at 1:30.
But when I got there Ray had his kart together and the club kart I think and 3 keen students. So I set my spare one up and had a go with the 5.5m to figure out what angles they should be sailing in the carpark. Wind was quite variable, but the light weight students they were having fun. I can't recall how many we had maybe 5 or 6 and the parents who brought them down. No idea where they were from (Ray?).

One didn't want to get out of my kart – he was having a lot of fun. But his family had got tired of watching him!

So there was just enough wind – good for new light weight students.... the club could do with some demo 5.5m sails.
