On the edge

I couldn't get up to the sailing club early enough today - had rugby duty to do in the morning.

So I arrived too late and had to watch the fun. Only four boats were left for the afternoon race - everyone else was too dead from the morning's exertions.

So I took a few photos (I'm really enjoying that new 70-300 VR lens!!).
This one is of Steve on the receiving end of a large gust - he was really flying too!

I though's post this because it shows part of what I love about of Laser sailing. Out in a good breeze, spray in your face, blasting along powered by nothing more than the wind. And every now and again a big gust that has you right on the edge. What better way to spend a Sunday afternoon (except for it maybe being in a warm place!!!

Next week!!
