You dont happen to work for the BOM do you harrow?

mkseven that's the funniest comment I've heard in ages.

Hi Harrow

I did a weather course one year for my yachting and the dude said that if you were sailing in a strange place and wanted to know where the sea breese would come from, stand facing offshore with your arms pointing along the average coastline direction then look slightly to your left and this is where the breeze will come from. It seems to work in the east and west but I don't know about other places

If you want to understand wind get a copy of the High Performance Sailing book by frank Bethwaite. you will struggle as he goes very in depth on wind but you will pick up some thing from it, about how win d works.

...wind comes from beans Baked beans

Made some good guesses this week... Decided not to sail yesterday after work - turned out to be no wind Decided to sail today and got about 2.5 hrs in after work
