Kurt & Harry 49er

The first day of racing today was made challenging by a patchy 15 to 20 knot NNE and large rain squalls coming across the course. We made the most of the windy conditions scoring a first in all four races today. We are extremely pleased with the way we are sailing and look forward to more racing tomorrow. Three races are planned and slightly less breeze forecast, keen for another good day on the water.

The practice race today was a bit of a non event for Kurt and I as we had some troubles with our trapeze wire, but all sorted now and ready to go for the first day of racing tomorrow. Some good breeze forecast to kick things off. Tonight was the opening ceremony where we marched from the Town Hall to Confederation Park.

We had a competitive game of golf with the other Aussies on yesterday's rest day in between North Americans and Worlds. Measurement today before an exciting practice race tomorrow.
