Guest Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 It would be terrible to go sailing when there was wind Link to post Share on other sites
Fogg 427 Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Do you mean no upper wind limits? So if it's only blowing 2kts they'll have to go out for a drifter anyway? Link to post Share on other sites
El Toro 97 Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 I was under the impression it was Harold Bennets call... and he was put forward by our Swiss friend. In saying that I'd be very suprised if he wa biased at all.. doesnt seem like the type to me.. Link to post Share on other sites
BelowPAR 0 Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Pretty sure Bennett (the RO) doesnt actually get the call, i think he gets a vote along with the other members of the RC. Could be wrong. Link to post Share on other sites

Fogg 427 Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 So if no upper limit how come yesterday's race was cancelled due to too much wind? Link to post Share on other sites
wheels 543 Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 The sea was too ruff, not the wind too strong. Kind of part and parcel though wouldn't you say. Link to post Share on other sites
Megwyn 2 Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 So if no upper limit how come yesterday's race was cancelled due to too much wind? Wasn't it more to do with the sloppy sea state? Link to post Share on other sites
rigger 47 Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 So if no upper limit how come yesterday's race was cancelled due to too much wind? Wasn't it more to do with the sloppy sea state? Yeap - 1.3m with 1.9m max expected Link to post Share on other sites
