Day # 1 Pre-Worlds

3 mast breaks on the first day already...The wind really blows here!

Team SA had a good first beat with a clean first row start. We were somewhat sluggish off the start, being under powered slightly in around 12 knots of breeze.

The wind increased to about 22 knots by the end of the race and increased further therafter. We missed the second race to save the boat for the worlds.


505 Worlds - Day #0 - Measurement Day

International

Measurement Day

Today was measurement day. The wind was blowing a good 20-25knots (photo in the gallery)but we did not go onto the water, as we still had quite a lot of work to do on the boat.
