The girl in the pictures is Kate Fairclough, who was one of the crews of the winning team (Wessex Exiles) at the Wessex Winter Warmer.

It's hard to see from a jerky image but there seems to be lots of body torque there, boat bearing away hard to keep the notoriously flat bow sections in the water rather than slamming, angle of heel about right and steady. No problems.

And you have how many Laser "cubes" in your trophy cabinet?

Oh well, I can't open the UK Laser archives so I don't know where being in the Welsh squad puts you and what "very good" means. Now I've gone to Jon Emmett's site and seen a longer and larger version of the clip it's obvious the guy is not sailing perfectly, but he seems OK.

That part of Laser sailing -heavy air upwind - is the part I'm not looking forward to getting back into. It was my forte but that was when I was fitter. I wonder if they'll notice if I put the International Canoe sliding seat on the Laser for heavy air races?
