Today seems to be the start of the northwesterly season! Weather-wise this week has been a wee bit tricky. We’ve got a group starting RYA Stage 1, a couple of folk doing Stage 2, a bigger group for Stage 3, James Holmes completing Stage 4 and a couple of lads on the advanced levels. On top of all of that we’ve also got the Equiom Manx Youth Sailing Squad here training in preparation for the RS Tera National Championships later this month.
We managed to get on the water on Monday, with a sailing, kayaking and bodyboarding Breezy Beach Party and a match racing session for the Equiom Manx Youth Sailing Squad. Yesterday all groups got afloat in the shelter of the harbour, except for the Squad who had a blast out in the bay working on heavy airs sailing.
Today – welcome to Port Erin in a north-westerly! Not sure how today will pan out yet…
