Sunday, we had 8 sailors on the water 12-2 with light winds and another 4 came down in the afternoon. Wind built up quite strong in the end for club racing with a few capsizes, it got quite exciting. Water was warm, no wetsuits required.

Let's ditch the Friday night sail and bbq, it is a horrible, no good, very bad day.

The forecast for Sunday could go either way, we better wait and see on Sunday morning.
