Good Bye Newcastle, it was great to be able to explore the local area with good food, great beaches and a very welcoming yacht club- it was another amazing stopover. Now we are back to racing. After the close quarters start out the harbour, (it looked good from on board I can only imagine what it looked like spectating!) we are sailing upwind, tacking up the cost with the rest of the fleet.
Thankfully the sea is flat so no crashing through waves. Last night the sky was clear with the stars lighting up the way. Soon we will get far enough north that we will be able to put the wind behind us and flatten off the boat a bit.
Kind Regards,
L & D
