That was the official race forecast from the race briefing - there is a weather briefing here at 8am - it will be bumpy regardless as it was windy yesterday.

Hi
At Anvil Pt going out the order was
Fury, Asia, going lean, Cougar rib, Rob gray rib, Apache, Cinzano, Swipes.
14 of the 17 Starters made it to Anvil.
conditions 2m wave height sloppy but much easier than last year.
Was wanting to track boat progress via Yellow brick worked well last year but now need flash player which is not compatible with Ipad. Grr.
If someone can update when boats getting to Hurst that would be most welcome. currently anchored alum bay.
loz

Ooh, didn't realise warlord was back in the water yet! You need to resize them so they're not too big probably, then click on the 'manage attachments' bit below where you type a message and upload them from your computer.
Failing that, email them to me at larbys@live.co.uk and I'll upload em for you.
Cheers, James
