the trip was very last minute as wind was not good very light
0800 i set off and stopped a few times to tighten the loosening cargo strap at 1000 i arrived and set about unpacking then rigging the boat, all went well brief at 1200 race at 1300, set off 1230 to sail down the lake got there intime for the start to commence
wind was very light and the comets soon caught us for 3 mins they got in the way but it was a drift and didnt finish very high up the fast fleet
race 2 was more wind after a postponement the boat went well and was a joy upwind but the downwinf was painful
race 3 had a cracking start and got to the windward mark in 3rd behind the very fast solo and fireball.
the downwind leg was painfully slow again getting pipped by the blaze of martin clift
so 11th 6th 5th , a slow sail back a quick derig and put Muutley to its new berth spot
very pleased overall . a hot day lack of enough water but a pasty to eat before the trip home .
