The first day when we launched there was a swel going in 1 direction and waves in the other that would have been fantastic had the wind held up.

How true. If you're going, get a map of the bouys, memorise it, tattoo it on your crews forehead, paint it on your sails - you'll still go wrong at some point during the week.

Don't let that put you off though - it's great sailing.
