Elwood, VIC, AU, mid afternoon session with Jerry and Evan. Got there a tad late after more domestic duties around 3ish, the powerlines were already humming, thinking that the breeze can get only stronger, so went out with the Rocket and had some really good runs until it gave away a bit. Got the barge for the next section with the seat harness but even then had to slog back in the end. It was all over just before 5pm, beer o'clock and time to pack up. Shame, we should have stayed rigged until 6:30pm when it came back on again.

Bit of a strange day at elwood, the wind came in early and Evan and myself on the water about 2.30 but died off early as well, with the clear skys we were expecting the seabreeze to hang around a bit longer and get some k's up.

Still a good sail with Jak and Evan.

Sweet but short-ish sail at Elwood with Jerry and Juergen. What looked to be a nicely building seabreeze at 2pm died off at around 4:30pm only to start picking up again around 6-6:30pm after packing it in for the day.

 

Still struggling with sailing upwind. Tried to follow Jerry up wind without any luck. Still, I'm slowly improving here with no "walks of shame" today even after coming in a Elwood proper on one run but managing to get back to Dawson Street on the next run. Good day.

How much fun would it be if we had a couple of bouys to race around sometimes!!

Yeah, I'd certainly be into that. Would be good practice for staying upwind too.

We had the same conditions at Bonno. It looked like it all started back at 1pm. Another big turn out. Even the families were down. The Russian is out for the season with a friend down from Russia, plus he is off to NZ soon. I might come down to Elwood today to crank up our speed numbers.
