Had to take mum to a school reunion.. Oh well she enjoyed it..pity they had to pick a windy day.. At least as it felt like minus 5 it wasn't hard to not feel enthused..

Was great to sail at the water resuce other side of canton. Then we moved to cantong after the wind direction changed. There were around 12 people out it was good to see. some nice speeds as well.

It was great at La Perouse. Wind was on the light side from 2 to 3, but then kicked in hard. For about a hour the wind was close to the water and steady, probably averaging nearly 40 knots. I was massively overpowered on my smallest sail, which is easy to sail at 35 knots. Towards 5 the wind backed right off. No one else on the water...

I was the only one out at Lake Illawarra. Maxed out on a 4.7. Awesome afternoon on the water.
