VOILES 2011
So happy I managed to sneak down to St Tropez for a day while I've been working in Paris, even if there was no wind.

VOILES DE ST TROPEZ day four
Yesterday was a lazy lay day, but today was another exciting day of racing.
We were off to a very slow start, with only 3 knots of wind, stuck in the doldrums for a while. The gentle rocking of the boat was lulling most of us to sleep when we started to see boats up ahead catch wind. Soon enough we were hit with a 15-knot breeze and took off, leaving the other boats struggling behind. We had a cracking sail, and passed the finish line first!
