Report from Ian (Storm) Johnson up in NT (That's the top end of Australia for you over seas readers)
Up here in Darwin we are having very unseasonal strong
south/south-east winds with the possibility of not sailing today.
The invitation race on Saturday was held in 6-8 knots of breeze.
Sunday the first two heats were sailed in 10-12 knots and yesterday the wind
started at about 18 knots and faded to about 15.
Chris (Bundy) Batenburg has been flying on his DNA and won every
heat so far. Yesterday he really pushed downhill and lead by a 300-400 metres
over Chris Parker, John Dowling and Michael Kopp.

Of course the weather has been magnificent and the beer flowing
freely.
Regards,
Storm
