The weather was a little kinder

We went sailing, we did a race, no one capsized (except Dylon so no chage there).

Out on the water was Sean, Eve, Cloe, Georga Hanah, Guy and of course Dylon also a staring role from Laura who help Guy in the Pico.

it was really good to see so many of you on the water and to actually do some sailing instead of just fighting for our lives.

Next weekend is the club Regata - so fun and games on the Saturday and also a Junior Race on the Sunday. Saturday is a good family time with fun and games on and off the water.

Jane and I will be joining in the fun and games on Saturday so Sharks will have a whole day to be on the water. If you want to borrow a club boat make sure you are down before 10:00 as at 11:00 the fun starts on the water and that's were Jane and I will be.

Please give it a rest Mr Windy

Yes it was a bit blowy on Saturday. But we did brave it out, with Jane taking Blueberry and Hanna out on one Pico and Brian taking Guy out on the other. Will, Dylon and Sean each went out on Toppers.
Dylon had fun seeing how many times he could go for a swim, I think it was 4 times. Will did well only going over once (that I saw) and Sean managed stayed upright all by himself.
James was out racing in both the afternoon races, so Sean and I took a Pico out for the last race just as the wind droped and we had to float arround.
So lets try again next Saturday for some nice weather.

So the weather man said nice light winds

It didn't turn out to be light winds, a few Sharks turned up and thought better of it, that is all except Will who took to the water sharing a Pico with Tom and proceeded to helm. So in the end he had great time and didn't fall in once although to hear Tom talk it was very close at times.

We really need to get ready for the Club Regata, this is the main family fun day at the club and is great fun no matter the weather. The fun day is on Saturday 25th June with racing taking part on the Sunday.

Calling Sharks parents - Jane and I have a few dates we would like some help with as well as trying to get some of the more expiranced sailors to give up some time to run sessions for the more expiranced Sharks. If you can help out then please let Jane and I know.
