Lull before the Storm...

Down at Hayling Island this week it’s ‘war on the water’ for 128 sailors from 19 countries competing in the ILCA European Masters where knee pain is a thing, backs are sore and the Racing Rules of Sailing in such big fleets is being thoroughly brushed-up on. The weather is kind, with light summer’s air and bright sunshine. What a wonderful scene the ILCA’s are when they get together. I have friends at the front and back of the fleets, and I wish them all a brilliant regatta.
