13:46 | 5 minutes to AP down on the start boat- the wind is lighter than yesterday 9/10 knots and a little less nearer the beach. But the wind looks OK in the course area.
13:40 | AP down on beach – we had no wind this morning, but the forecast was good for sea breeze in the afternoon ..and the wind is building.
The plan is for 3 races back to back – yesterdays outer loop course is replaced by a windward /leeward course.
