Great Day for A Sail

In perfect conditions save for a tad too little breeze Julie, Mike, Celine Karen and I set sail in the 4th race of the Balmain Winter season.

The crew worked very hard as we were trying to keep our place at the top of the leader board. As you can see Julie was concentrating extremely hard keeping the jib working to maximum. And we did keep our place. Even a 4th was not enough for us to slip. And as Amon Re retired due to sailing the wrong course we will actually come 3rd.

We managed to avoid the stinking great tanker that came up the harbour at us but one of the other boats tried for right of way.  Pictures by Celine.
