It didn't...there was a max 3-4mph of wind so I took the 8.1 out for a drift instead.

If Nessa is willing I may try again this coming weekend (and if I can get a day pass).

What are these day passes everyone talks about? Are they tickets for sailing on the water for a day or have I got the wrong end of the stick....
Needs to sail more...

well it's the stick's fault when you start needing day passes; I hope I don't need to be anymore graphic....

Day passes are accrued via brownie point consolidation, brownie points are amassed by school run duties, nappy changing (back in the day)putting ones own cup in the dishwasher and actually turning it on, despite previously agreed permanent exemption from dish washer duty as a condition of purchase way back when she was still young and appreciative of such a fine spouse.. Brownie points get amassed by any un manly pursuit or action such as visiting soft furnishing establishments, visits to super markets, garden centres, other none specific none electrical or vehicular establishments that cause extreme boredom for the red blooded male, these points become quadrupled if it's windy.
Brownie points, value, volume and account details are held solely at the discretion of the person with male genitalia, access to the brownie point account is by helmet scan and withdrawals can only be performed orally. Or exchanged for day passes.
