Genuine Blue

It's already Sunday in Australia and, in an attempt to catch up for lost races in the Young Guy Real Laser Sailor Worlds in Terrigal, the organizers decided to make an early start. Forget about going to church dude.

According to the championship website...

The race committee made the call after checking expected weather conditions for today. The Bureau of Meteorology predicts ideal south/south-westerly winds of 15-20 knots, tending south-east this afternoon and easing throughout the day to 10-15 knots on 1 to 2 metre seas and a south/south-easterly swell of 2 to 2.5 metres.

Monday's current outlook looks fine too, with east/nor-easterly sea breezes at 10-20 knots on 1 to 2 metre and a south-east swell of around 2 metres. As the boats left the ramp this morning, at around 8.45am NSW time, the skies were a genuine blue with a few white fluffy clouds.

Woo hoo. That sounds better. I'm just finishing my packing. And tomorrow we're off. Terrigal and Old Farts Laser Worlds here we come.
