Day Two at the Flamenca 'Worlds'

A slight correction to yesterday's report from the Flamenca Worlds - it appears that 'Brother' Dion could only join the crew from today (something about old age precluding him from celebrations and being very afraid of the famous Duette fines meetings!). On the bow yesterday was young Delyn Price.

From Sean:

We had the pursuit race to Cape Point and back yesterday. Our start time was 9:20 and the wind was +-10 knots west. We were 4th round the turn mark but then Cape Doctor turned on us and the wind started building to 20-25 knots, enabling the bigger boats to sail past us.

Spirits are high, for today's sailing which starts at 11h00 and if the predictions are right we will be sailing in 16 -21 knots NW.

Kind regards

Sean
