Double Hander Race 6 February 2016

The start was delayed by half an hour, to allow the fog to lift.. A nice SW on the water, around 16 knots in the start zone.. Yolo getting a nice clean start and tacked away to lay landfall, the first mark.. there were a few shifts on this leg accompanied by some puffs... so worked this zone, rounding second with Tenacity two lengths behind... Hoisted the kite and made some good time downwind in the freshening breeze, putting in a gybe for the lay.. The winds got upto 25 for a little while... good strike and rounding at Milnerton followed by a comfortable upwind in the reduced breeze which had settled down to around 14. Could not pay number 8 (leading boat could) so put in two quick tacks and around the mark to the finish. In the end, Yolo won on corrected time. Aboard were: Dale and Ian.
