Neil, Peter, Colin, and me. Severe thunderstorm warnings in the late afternoon. Rained like stink on the way to Newcastle, but petered itself out for the race. We only had 2-3 knots of breeze with 1-2 ft rollers leftover from the winds of the day and the storm.
Neil had got his new to him main converted from bolt rope to slugs for the boat and it fit perfectly.
Course was W-S-N.
We got the the west mark just at the 45 minutes into the race, so the race continued. Spent another hour to get to the south mark; would have taken another 2 hours to finish the race according to the GPS. Race abandoned.
