No racing today for us as an Atlantic low pressure system approached the British Isles and made for misty, windy conditions that were not suitable 49er racing. The associated cold front kicked up 25-30kts of SW breeze for blue fleet's (yellow fleet was able to get two races off) scheduled afternoon races, so we will race early tomorrow and then re-seed and race again in a new group in the afternoon...going to be a long day. The breeze is forecast to go NW as the cold front pushes through tonight, so it should be puffy, offshore conditions with sunny periods!
We were very close to launching late this afternoon, but the wind built too high and today's races were abandoned. We were relived because it was windy enough for the good guys to look a little skittish...
