Last day of the course and the wind was forecast to increase to 25 kts by
the afternoon. Spent the morning doing the admin and signing off
certificates (congrats to Ian on getting Level 4). Peter Hart had invited
us to join his loop off as part of his looping video so I thought this is
the peer pressure I need to finally go over the handlebars.
Had loads of runs but never got powered up enough and struggled to stay
upwind. The forecast had not materialized by 5pm and I had a long drive
back so I derigged. Ironically the wind seemed to pick up but it was only
a brief flurry.
It was good to catch up with my old sailing buddies from when I lived in
Rhosneigr and the RAF guys. Back to work on Monday for 2 weeks before we
all head to Tiree, can't wait.
