I think you'll find that is south westerly wind on that chart, if you hover you curser over the arrow it comes up with "sw"

[robbie]

Wind direction is where it is comming from, and tide direction is where it is going too. Is that not correct?

That is a great weather site, bookmarked it straight away.

What it does show quite succinctly is that when the racing ends on Sunday. The waves roll in at less that two meters for the first time all weekend.

All that are racing this weekend stay safe!!!
Personally I'd be wearing thermal underpants under my floatation suit.

Went there yesterday. very windy with super choppy conditions. I am popping by this afternoon too, hopefully the rain will have calmed the sea a little.

Fantastic boats though. i am very envious of the people racing.

Thanks Mark ... there's only one Sambo
Yes, it was interesting ... more like lifeboat weather than racing weather

Why was it withdrawn?

[topcat]

Cider Daze, the boat 'Fearless' was damaged on saturday. they suffered a huge hole in the side of the hull. what happens to these boats. how can they be repaired etc?

[cider daze]

That boat will be repaired we give them to people like sambo who do a great job and patch them up , he is doing mine next week you get 19 boats into a corner on a tight course your going to see some reel action we got hit on the Sunday race.

[topcat]

Wow, glad to hear it can be patched up. i havent had any dealings with boat repair.
Hope your boat is touched up too. There was plenty of action out there thats for sure. engies hanging off, engine cowls ripped off, hulls holed. great fun to watch though.

[minto]

Will the 2007 series be getting any TV coverage?
