Sorry, I did not make it to Grafham this weekend to support the class for the Cat Open and for a chat.
I seem to have gone down with a bug. Ange blames the Covid & Flu jabs we had last week.
Normal service will be resumed next time......
Regards
Bob
PS The weather looked very light. Did we manage to get a few races in?

Hi Bob

Nothing Saturday. 4 short races today in lovely sunshine. Sailed about 8 miles, managed a whopping 7.3kn at one point (not sure how!) and ascended 30m (such a brilliant stat for sailing on a pond!). Watch out for Mark A's perfect pros.

It was a challenge Bob & Team Denchfield did really well to get us 4 races on the Sunday as Saturday was a non starter.

Racing I found really hard work and race 3 showed how you can get every decision wrong for me!!

Good fun overall..
