HI all,

Last weekend in galway over 100 Optimist sailors took to the

water in conditions that many crewed yachts would have said

"no way!" to.

On both days the wind got up to over 25 knots and gusts of 30+

with constant squalls and rain .

Even I had to spend most my time with the camera stuffed down

my jacket, so the Images are a bit limited this time sorry!.
