Still Waiting

The wind was in the right direction, if a little strong. Hoped it would ease off so went for a drive. Three hangies in the air, but not going high. They managed to flick over the back but fell well short of Warkworth, less than 10km. The wind didn't ease, in fact it strengthened, so gave it away. How sad, never mind.

Season starter ?

It looked good early on, but the sea-breeze convergence developed early and shut things down. By the time I got to launch, just after midday, there was no Sun and only a light crosswind. The Easterly sea-breeze dominated and we gave it away around 3 pm.
