Revised course due to light winds with only two marks, Quinnell & Prince Consort. Good start with the tide under
us and headed the fleet all the way to Lepe Spit. On the approach to Quinnell the tide turned and the tide
induced wind dropped. Managed to finally get round Quinnell despite the strong tide and headed off to Prince
Consort leaving the rest of the fleet struggling against the tide. The run across the Solent started really well but
about half way across the wind died completely leaving us drifting back on the tide and in too much depth to
kedge. Eventually the sea breeze started to fill in but by then we were 3 miles down tide from Prince Concert.
Kited up to the mark in the company of Quokka 9 and Dusty P with a quick beat to the finish only to find out that
fearnought had beaten us, still second place points are good for the championship.
