Windguru showing a typical Alton weekend.. breeze on Saturday to remove the rust in training! And a light and tricky Sunday..

[Ocean Strider]

Great to get loads of races in on Saturday afternoon evn if the breeze was all over the shop!!

Sundays Open looked like being a difficult event with mist over the reservoir but it improved after a delay and we ended up having an incredibly closely contested event.  Having drawn the short straw of being 5th I am burdened with the responsibility of doing the report. 

I'll start a new post and put the results on their and work on the hand crafted report later....
