minus 4 overnight , not looking forward to it, but winds and sun were ideal.
a quick breakfast roll to start and off to rig the boat , the clew ties didnt play ball , luckily Tim came to me rescue, this held me up and i was late leaving the beach.
the race started fairly prompt a windward leaward, i made mistake of being on pin end and wind was too light, the boat went well and i caught up quick to finish 4th on handicap.
race 2 i got the mainsheet caught around the tiller and misssed the start by a few mins, however, i went left and tacked for the mark and made up a lot of ground, in the end i ended up 2nd on the water and 3rd on handicap, Martin won the series laser and chris 2nd , i got 7th having only done 4/8 races, however on those 4 i had done i would have got 3rd overall, so that was a bonus to think about. the new kicker went well, i doubt i will do the 32/1 16/1 seems fine.
R1 2.4NM sail out plus race 50mins total
R2 2.9NM race plus sail back 45mins total
