Fireball Worlds in Adelaide, Australia - Day 4

by Jonathan Bale, UK Fireball Association 7 Jan 2004 09:28 GMT

It's either all or nothing here in Adelaide. Today we had ALL!

Not only did we have 30 knots plus of wind, but the local surfers were using our launching area to practise their big wave techniques!

Needless to say today's racing was abandoned.
