After almost 15 months of docile weather, the last week brought some oldfashioned storms. The UK and a large part of NW Europe were under the route of some serious storms. Yesterday and today the last of the foul weather.
The Youth Squad went out for a training weekend (in, for those of you who've been here, Medemblik). Weather reports showed that the wind reached 25+ knots with gusts hitting the high 30s/ low 40s.
Things went pretty well but financially not so... A broken radial lower mast and a snapped carbon joystick are the silent witnesses of an 'intense-but-oh-so-cool' weekend. Oh well, that's 300 euros from the contingency fund...
