We have all had days of little or no wind with landsailing, you have access to this large open space... so what keeps you amused????

Kick the footy
Play cricket
Remote control cars
Fly frisbies

This is probably the issue that actually creates more "ex-landsailors" than anything else!
That and race organisors who insist that "it will get better in x minutes"
Going to the bar is a good option!

after 5 days of no wind and the yacht in the back of the work truck, AND working in the bush surrounded by little claypans, today I gave up and did some serious work out there, and the wind just blew, and blew , and blew!
