The forecast for today indicates a southerly wind of 0-5 knots. Looking out from the club our race area is between two wind bands, to the south we have a light southerly breeze attempting to fill down from the city but to the north there’s a light north easterly. Net result no stable wind on the race course yet. However, our PRO is hopefully that things will stabilise and he’s gone afloat to check out the conditions for himself. The crews are getting ready to follow him out so fingers crossed we’ll get some good racing this afternoon.
Here are a few snap shots from the club to give you a flavour of the venue.
