The Alderney race was flat as a pancake an hour after slack water , neap tides and very little wind about .

Excellent, now come out of the harbour ,turn right and keep going for a couple of hours;)
 
Andy,

Thanks for posting. Great timing on the race, well done.

You must go to Herm while you are there, it is lovely. If not on your boat then get the ferry over.
 
Well done!

A great sense of achievement when you arrive in the CI.

Lots of local knowledge to take advantage.

Piers is to Guernsey as JFM is to Antibes and the S o F :)

Henry :)
