Weather report – light rain, no wind and 8 sailors who should have known better. Only four races completed in spite of Sheep’s valiant attempts to set up a selection of short courses. Poonie did attempt to provide some additional entertainment by threatening to do a replay of the nude solstice swim to retrieve his boat from the mud. Gadget was having none of that and luckily convinced him to use the dinghy. Trumpy Boy clearly had some sort of secret weapon under his boat that allowed him to move while everyone else drifted around. Clearly there were some mystery currents and tidal movement that seemed to move boats around at random. It was clearly frustrating but still worth getting boats on the water.

The fleet racing to the mark, note the weird current behind Trout. Spooky.
