26 kmh forecast for 1pm to 3pm,

so no2 went on my new (used) d5 .

it went rather well for only the second outing but the first not plagued by winch line dropping off drum.

a good turn out of 5 yachts

Craig's still waiting for a new winch & kelvin was at a family reunion.

everybody won at least 1 race ,

but the shiftiness of direction & strength left a lot of big leads disappeared

in one leg and the win was gone.

some big gusts sent us off on some wild rides again gaining or loosing places .

I left early not wanting to push my luck with newish yacht .

a good day for it

.next week we should be at full strength ,

see you there
