Day 2 Christmas Camp





We had a bit of a different crew out today for the 2nd day of our camp.

Kevin Black (BC Sailing Coach) made a guest appearance.

Ben Scott , Joanna Moore and Alex Shepard were new .

Luke and Alanna were back from the first day.

We started the day with hard rain and a solid easterly.

Then as we launched at noon it died down and the rain subsided.

We ran a number of races and drills then the wind died almost completley.


Kevin mentioned that the forcast was for a good westerly and just as he said it the wind filled in from the west.

It picked up quickly and hail came with it.

Moments later it was blowing 25 kts and a few boats were upside down and Kevin had broken his mast.

Alanna and Luke stayed out for one more lap and got plenty cold but had a good sail in!
