Kieler Woche comes up with another blank

Latest email from Anna Tunnicliffe who is still waiting to race at Kieler Woche.

Once again, the usually windy venue of Kieler Woche, came up with a blank. There was some sailing in other fleets, but the Laser Radial fleet stayed firmly ashore.

The forecast for tomorrow is for a little more wind, so the Race Committee will try to catch up and get us back on schedule.

I would like to thank Carmeuse for their continued support of my campaign towards the 2012 Olympics in London, as well as US Sailing Team AlphaGraphics.

Sail Hard,

Anna
