Mike Sanderson visit

We had one of those great sailing days yesterday - instead of going to work we went out in a perfect 10-20 knot breeze with Mike Sanderson - who flew down from Auckland with Rob Shaw to come out for a ride on Blink - and Mike gave us lots of fantastic advice on how to get the most out of the boat derived from his extensive Volvo 70 and Ocean Race experience. We put up pretty much every sail we had and ripped around the harbour testing and tweaking.  He had lots of great suggestions, and some pretty significant tweaks to sail setup which should have us getting around racetracks even faster.  

Vesna was having a great afternoon too ...


Not sure what everyone is looking at here.  Maybe just away from the guy with the camera ...?
