Little or no wind has characterised the regatta so far. Racing has been delayed till the early evening on most days now to get the best wind and tomorrow looks no better.
The Laser Radial course where I have been coaching Laura Baldwin again has bee unpredictable to say the least. Laura has had some great individual race results and is poised to setp it up with the onset of the finals racing tomorrow. She is in 26th. I am the best coach on the water though, as i win the towing race into the harbour for her each day, He who dares wins!!
Team GBR are doing well with several of the sailors on the Podiums going into the finals racing stage of the week.
Notably John Pink in the 49er leading the way equal points with Chris Draper and Simon Hiscocks also of GBR.
Coaching ladies is always amusing as this evening we were treated to a Canadian treat for desert, Schmaws, biscuits, sandwiching hot marshmellow and chocolate, VVVVV good!! The things you have to try to be a supportive coach!!
All the best
Hugh
