Musto Etchells Winter series Mooloolaba - Yesterday, Day one, wind started in south east and swung left during the day's racing to the east. It was mostly in the six-eight knot band, although there were gusts around 11 knots. After racing it swung right round to the north and died.

Today it's expected to be lighter. As we all know 'sailing teaches you patience.' Today there may be more learning.

All southerers are reminded Sunblock will be needed and don't forget to put it on your insteps!

Here is the latest forecast.
