420 Worlds. Fremantle, Australia.
The Commodore is enjoying 34’ of heat on the beautiful coastline of Fremantle.
Ben is enjoying the sailing here, so far in winds of 18-27kts. The worlds started yesterday with very challenging conditions and finishing was a good result. Today is very different and we’re waiting for the “Fremantle Doctor “ (the regular sea breeze) to kick in and deliver 20kts. Managed to dodge the sharks so far!

Happy New Year to all at TBYC

Finally in Florida *Updated*
Well after the plane breaking down and getting delayed for 27 hours only to have a Virgin flight block the runway up for another few hours I’m finally here.
The boats got stuck in customs for a day and instead of a flatbed car lorry to onload all we got was a covered truck with a tailgate lift.
with some inginuity, brute strenght and plenty of ignorance all boats are on the deck and in one piece, all rigged up just having a bite to eat and then off for some training and hopefully be ready for the US Nationals starting tomorrow.
Awful weather here, 28 degrees and blowing 18-20knots from the West every afternoon.
