I went out in the 6 on saturday and god was it COLD. By the end of the first race my hands had stopped moving when i wanted them to. During the second race my coordination was going and i ended up doing silly things like sheeting out in lulls and moving into the boat when there was a gust and pinching a lot and just generally being slow. I thing i need to get some warmer clothing to go under the wetsuit. Any ideas on good warm kit for trapezing in? (and i have a bit of a thing against chicken power)

I couldnt be bothered with getting cold 2 days in a row so i did some college work on sunday. I'd be supprised if you got any proper waves at hayling on sun, wasn't it northerly?

Haha!

Was a pimp ship in top gear was it not!?

Crewed for the Laurence, there was a 200 n 500 training thing, was short n sharp! Good fun. Got the video coaching going n in like a steady 25knts. Moths n 600ffs were kinda distracting though! =P
