Double Handed Race -10 March 2018

With a light W- on the water... ranging between 5-12 knots.. with flat seas.. Start took place in good breeze with Yolo getting a reasonable start,  but after the breakwater lost our tacking back in, once around the weather mark(laid mark) a downwind to Milnerton... necessitating a few gybes with the kite as there were fluctuations and the breeze died in our lane.. with wind both sides which we could not get to... winds dropped to 5 knots for a while.. but started to fill in properly just before the leeward mark with a slow rounding while sorting out a tangled halyard.. and then beat back to the weather mark with the rest of the race in reasonable breeze on flat water.. In the end finishing second on corrected time. Aboard were: Dale and Ian.
