Turned up with kit and sails - first time in 6+months I was free and able to sail - and the lake was frozen over! Gah!

Lake frozen in Hillingdon, first time this year.
I believe water will only freeze when wind is light to nothing. When its blowing, it cant freeze as easily. Lets hope there is no snow this weekend, I want to sail, last time before Christmas. |

A few boats out at Pevensey. We volunteered to do safety boat. The sun was out, light winds but enough and flat sea.
We set a shortish course aiming for 3 lap races lasting about 30 mins. Didn't suit the single cat of course but the light winds meant he was going to struggle anyway.
.........those warps and chains were very cold when we pulled them out

We were out at Crosby today.
Saturday we had no ice, go down this morning to find a thin sheet of ice on a sea water filled lake ! A few good runs with the safety boats saw more of a slush. Cool and very little wind but we got out and got rid of some heavy heads after last night club Christmas party.

AWESOME days sailing today at draycote!!!
first proper wind for weeks! hints of white horses at times in the gusty conditions aswell :) a brilliant feeling to see a moth foiling along beside you downwind in the cherub, and not going any faster 17knots on GPS peak :) cold though :/

Had a lovely sail in our Graduate (single handed) - a lovely bright winters day at Alton Water, five boats out making the most of a relatively mild day (+ 7 degrees C), very theraputic and just what the doctor ordered,

We could be in for a loooong winter if we keep getting wind forecast like that http://www.windguru.cz/int/index.php?sc=96821
Seems recently the wind has taken the day off on the sabbath?

Pevensey had a couple of races, fingers a bit cold on the beach but very nice once we got going.
