I heard rumour of the algae on Friday night before I left home. Instead of 9 days at Paynesville with 3 races, I delayed my trip and went to Sugarloaf on Saturday as my daughter Zoe wanted to crew. We had 10-15 knots and one very good beat to windward twin trapping. Very happy with a result of 7th out of 25.
I have had a relaxing week at Paynesville with trips to the ocean beach for swimming / bodyboarding. Plenty of time spent drinking coffee and reading the paper at cafes. BBQ at sperm whale head today for Aus day returning around the back of Raymond Island under jib on the Sonata 7.
Unfortunately I can't stay for a trip to the drag strip as I will head back to Sugarloaf for Saturdays race. I hope the algae clears soon.
