Left the marina with approximately 15knots of wind which quickly picked up to 25-30 knots. Quite choppy due to wind over tide. After about half an hour the wind died down so put up the headsail. Shortly after followed by main sail and achieved about 3.5 knots against the tide. Went down to Darnet and then turned round and sailed back. Locking in was exiting as the forward line was removed to early causing the boat to 180 prior to the aft line being removed. Managed to push off and spring with the aft line to turn back round and head out.

What a Beautiful Day. Clear blue skies, calm water, ideal. Bit on the chilly side especially when at pace sitting on flybridge. That didn’t last long! 😆 Lattes on the far side of little Cumbraes, not too shabby. Note to self, sugar and sweeteners. And a box of biccies would t go amiss. And on the way back, Nicole spotted the splashes so we went to investigate. Dolphins jumping and then swimming directly under the boat! I had to go into Neutral. Made the day. These are the memories…

SHYC race - Safia - 1st place.

NÉ 12-17kn if wind, cloudy and it felt much cooler than yesterday. Good sail with a gybe. We were delayed as the engined did not want to start. At the end it was the starter battery which has given up. Thank you Toby for your testing and evaluation! After a fun long night, we were tired.

up and down the harbour, smooth sea state. lovely bit of breeze around force 3-4. lots of racing going on in the harbour as well. such good fun!
