We don't do Ice Tea, you'll have to bring your own. Geert and Joanna went for a sail this evening, Joanna was true to her word and was wearing a drysuit! The wind was approx 12knts and the Bay was flat. I went out at 17.00hrs yesterday in a shorty.

Gill, So you got addicted to Iced Tea in Florida. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> See you soon- Yes, I was wearing my dry suit-make all the fun you want, but I was quite comforable. The bay looked flat from shore but the waves were quite big. Big rollers. Geert and I had a good time. Getting use to each others way of doing things. And starting with the bruises early. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Good ho; see you Thursday at some point. Current long range forcast is for windy Sunday and Monday! (22-26kts!!!!!)
We'll be travelling down on Thursday (plan to arrive mid-afternoon). The other news is that I've handed the boat over to No.1 son, Paul, for the event. I'll be just an interested bystander!

Pit crew?
So, John are you coming for the Global Beer challenge? <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> (I think Mark has already won that one!)
Geert Joanna and I had a great sail today, the wind was southerly approx 12-14mph and a nice 2 foot swell was running into the Bay which was great to play in with the kites up.

Low water is at 15:40hrs <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> If you are really desperate you can still get on the water using the slip nearest the Pier (Where I keep my boat) at around 16:30 but that's to close to Beer O'clock for me <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Thanks Mark; maybe see how early I drag myself out of bed; I guess I have a 5 hour drive; so may be there Mid AM which might give me time to get out; I assume I'd need to be off the water by about 13:30 to have enough water - looking a bit tight...
