Sadly no pictures of Paul and I on the 5.7 blowing everyone away downwind on the Saturday.

I couldn't help but giggle like a schoolgirl all the way downwind as the 5.7 with kite sailed at the same speed as the Tornado in about 18kts of breeze though we were going about 10 degrees lower. Really adds up over an 8km downwind leg!

Sadly two of the locating pins for the spreaders appear to have sheared off and the mast folded in two just after we dropped the kite (unfortunately 8km from home at the other end of the lake).

It was a real treat to be able to jump on Willy's boat for the sunday with Bob in the first race and James in the second. I had a great time sailing one lap as skipper and one as crew as can be seen in the photos.
