Night Sailing 6:00pm-8:00pm. Full moon clear skies and warm !! What an excellent session. Howling wind - fully powered up - the wall was in. A truly memorable session. Only Windy John and Mikey out. It really is something else blasting down the wall @ 30 knts in the pitch black and not being able to see where it (the wall) finishes until you literally have about 0.5 second to react to the vague outline of it as it appears out of the dead of night. Windy's van and Mikey's car gave some light at the launch area, but that was all we had - plus a small audience of bemused locals standing on the prom. 24/7 sailing has arrived !
