Burrow Speed Strip With a Westerly

Myself and Ryan sailed at the burrow today with my neighbour Andy and his friend Tim. We all headed out at around 10, with the the sandbank starting to appear. The wind was very gusty at that point and huge squalls were coming through. After a while the sandbank was uncovered enough to start using the speed strip, so we headed down the channel and sailed close to the sandbank heading out to sea as it was a westerly. (The Burrow also works in westerlies as this sandbank also creates a flat water strip) We sailed there until four o'clock and then threw in the towel and headed in.

We sailed twice in Kilcrea this week too, with very very mixed conditions!

Ryan will upload photos soon.
