Well our round the island race was a great success with close racing on a beautiful day. We didn't beat the course record, but we were close. We were all tucked up at home by teatime telling tales of daring do. Meanwhile its now Tuesday evening and Commodore Dennis is still racing, covering 204 nautical miles in the last 24 hours and currently doing 9 knots at the southern edge of the fleet.

Busy day on the water today, several beginners finishing their lvl 2 course and several improvers on their start racing course, plus a few club members simply buzzing around for fun. All had a great day with decent wind, but where was the heatwave the rest of the country was sweltering under? We had classic edinburgh Haar and the music of the foghorns from the anchored ships in the Forth to accompany us.
