Back to the waiting game...
We totally missed yesterday. The unseasonal hot weather threw us completely. The morning was a scorcher and the forecast predicted nothing. By midday we canned it... By three the heat was blown away and it was almost perfect over at speed-spot. It was too late to round up the team and rig the boat. There was nothing left to do but go sailboarding. Ho-hum!
Today we rigged up regardless. The Rocket is still rigged up outside right now in fact. It was windy early which usually indicates a blow... but today it didn't come. Nearly, 14-15 knots maybe... but not quite.
On another note, we are waiting for the final stamp of approval on some ongoing funding to allow us to bring down a third person as a skilled hand. It is something we lacked last time. Finding a third skilled hand on sailing days is always a hassle and one that can have serious knock on effects.
So ah, once again, we'll see what tomorrow brings.
Cheers, Paul.
