It seems ages since we have had a light wind drift. Even the Wednesday evenings have been a bit exciting this year...... ------------- |

| This might just be me, but I've noticed that each season we tend to have either almost all really windy Wednesday racing, or a drift every week. We very rarely get a mix. |

I believe that at UK latitudes the depressions tend to come in at about 7 day intervals, which would explain such a tendency... |

I have quite enjoyed all of this strong wind, it makes topper racing fun (when we go out) ------------- Topper 46148 for sale http://sailingdinghies.apolloduck.co.uk/display.phtml?aid=276804 |
