Watling Streetworks Winter Series - 16 March 2025
Reflections don't make for exciting sailing! For the latest round of the Watling Streetworks Winter Series, there was little wind in the forecast and what was expected would be from the East. That side is protected by the ridge that separates East and West Baldwin with some, possibly, catabatic wind with the cooler air rolling down from Carraghan so it was patchy and mostly from Northerly direction down the West... -
