| The team getting ready to start, or perhaps finished sailing. |
Eight Queen's Sailing Team members flew to Bermuda over our reading week to keep our
skills up in the off-season. The weather was beautiful although we were
there for the coldest day they'd had so far. Every day was over 15ºc, with
20-30kts. Although a little windy for practicing match racing (enough to break
an old J24 boom) it was great all-around training, and good to start setting up
a team dynamic. RHADC was extremely accommodating, letting us use their boats
for the trip and get out sailing 4 straight days. A big thanks to RHADC, the coaches that came out to help, and our
amazing hosts/hostesses who kept us well fed and out of the rain! Most importantly we managed to fill all our time with sailing or exploring the island making it an excellent 'reading week'. We're looking forward to heading back there for a week before the event in France and hopefully train in International One Designs. Now that we're back the search for funding begins!
