After a windy Saturday, Sunday was a frustrating day for the windsurfers. While most the island was under a blazing sun, Yaverland was under a blanket of fog coming off the sea. Every now and then the sun tried to burn through, which might have resulted in a decent sea breeze. This didn’t happen until 5pm, too late for the wind to build.

Monday looks brighter, so hopefully there will be more wind…...

The windsurfers are glad they brought their own equipment. Boards and rigs are provided for competition, but with the best wind of the week blowing this morning and official practice not starting until this afternoon, the boys have gone off for an early session at Ventnor.

Hopefully they will have time to look round and see the leaders of the round the island yacht race flying past at high speed...

No more time for practice, all equipment safely stowed away tuned to perfection, ready and waiting just like the finely tuned operators for a chance to perform.

Preparations are almost complete and it is time to focus and compete! With swimmers recording training distances of between 144 to 220 kilometres each month for the last 9 months (that is like flying from Jersey to London) no more can be asked of  them...
