The Latitude Race was cancelled due to the accurate forecast of aweful weather but having stowed provisions those hardy members of the crew bravely set out in surprisingly sunny and favourable winds at 1500 hrs on Friday. Dovie, Dick, Mel , Els , Sue and Bryan then found themselves in a maelstrom with rain, 20-30kts on the nose. The West Channel came into sight after about 3 hours of unpleasantness and fortunately the wind died off and the sun came out making entry to the cut and tying up at QCYC much easier.
