There were so many sailors on the water at Lagoon Beach on Sunday. !
I think the head count was at least 12. It was very windy and gusty, with winds varying by 10 knots. 25 - 35 knot winds for most of the day, but winds hit a ridiculous 42 knots late in the afternoon when a few very keen sailors went to Bell Buoy. Sorry, no shots of this nuclear event as I was well done, like the most of us before then.

Today (monday) was almost as fun with 9 kids on the water, aged 6 - 16 years, all having a great sailing session in the sunny 10-15 knot conditions. (Please post some of the photos you have taken today Parky.)

There was also a good sailing session on Saturday afternoon when an unexpected sea breeze of 20 -22 knots kicked in in the afternoon.

Very representative of Alan's cryptic teaching style ! , and the kids do need the good gear to have fun, my daughter is very impressed with her 3 mtr Severne sail that has images of dolphins on it. !
