Wednesday, Hurghada
Wind still with us, although dropping of at about noon. Spent best part of 3 hours blasting in and out this am, 7.5m being a good match for the conditions. Now very tired and a little sore, pay back I guess for being so inactive over the winter months, two more days to go, its going to be a challeng...

Saturday May 2nd - Hurghada
First day and 5m conditions for the morning session, first run out was fine, but soon discovered my lack of fitness after a while . Clocked a tad over 26 knots in the knotometer. Wind dropped over lunch, 7m for the afternoon, flatter water though :) The kit is amazing what with the center only being...

Greetings from foca
Hello all, just a brief update from the warmer climbs, a few familiar faces in resort, some current members, and some ex’s, which is a real bonus. Good winds, if a little gusty for me, for our first two days, yesterday’s mid choice was 5.5, today, probably a 6. Decided to give some of the other acti...

Would be nice to ...

Re: Stithians Saturday......
Another full days sailing, we all thought the conditions were stronger on land when rigging, only to be underpowered when finally on the water, that said a full day in the end with very sore fingers to prove the point. Similar conditions forecast tomorrow, will the body last....,,
