Simply beautiful - Cowes Week - Day 3

After having spent the morning waiting for the breeze to come to the party, when it did it was worth it. Beutiful conditions for a classic summer afternoon race. Steve Ancsell and Matt Sheahan take a look at some of the topics of the day.

Sitting at my desk in Western Australia, it's really interesting to see a load of classes I've never heard of before. Australian Sailing (our peak body) has a small group of "corporate classes" that it focuses on and basically ignores anything else..
Thank you so much for putting all this together.

For a while I too sat at a desk in Western Australia. Long term I couldn't take it, and had to get back to racing on the Solent. Take it from me, it's much better than WA (but in worse weather). My only regret - I didn't take those $AU500 sections in City Beach in 1967. They just looked like expensive sand dunes. Now - good grief. My big mistake.

Thanks this is very enjoyable. Sadly I can’t be there because I am injured. Hopefully next year.

England expects every conservative to do their duty! Nice sailing.
