In our 5th year of just "driving to the wind", it begins Wednesday.

We will most likely be heading to Stanley, the forecast looks excellent, and 5 from 5, why not start in Stanley
There are rumours this year some just "can't be bothered" .... but we believe!
*Anyone is welcome to join us, we'll try and put a post up the night before/morning of the next leg.

For those not familiar with the purposeful editing of MrHoover... and to relive some golden moments just living the dream:

Where will you sail at Stanley on this NE wind? Is it worth going there on this direction?

Then at this stage to swansea on Friday - as always, will reassess continually.

Managed to get a quick sail in off Freers at Portsy this arvo.
Only just caught the wind before dropping out.

Plan for now is to head East. Funny how similar weather is happening for another year... where ever the wind is blowing is where we're go, so Swansea for now will be the destination.

Large Trailer rearrangement is about all there is to show for the sail. The bay is a great place to sail, and very underrated - we just didn't have the water in the bay :-/
