A mostly smooth c7mph NW breeze and limited convection/relief cloud had us somewhat dazzled but at least slightly warmed today with full 1.5 sails and standard race rods.

The consistency of wind speed really does have a major impact and today, I would say, that there was a gradual increase through the session which meant that the sails were slightly over powered at the end. Along the way though we saw some spontaneous in line stops and inverse pendulums. That’s always a good indicator of ‘treacle’ flying… Likewise, the rolling ball when it really works!

A run through of Plan B and one of the Cervia ‘Dosy – Linear Rotation’ sequences also featured today with occasional passing but minimal audiences.

The 14th March is a fallback weekend but we may have to resort to Easter for the warm-up event. That is when we will be doing the full kit inspection anyway…
