Earlier this week I took part in the bi monthly twilight sailing at Sutera Harbour Marina. Crews from visiting yachts are invited to take part in this fun even, sailing Optimist dinghies. It makes quite an amusing spectacle seeing the older generation squeezing themselves into a boat designed for youngsters.
Winds were a little on the light side which turned making the windward mark a little bit of a marathon and it was a pity that only five boat took part.
Prizes were awarded for the first three places, under a special handicap system which resulted in the the winner and the fourth and fifth boat crossing the line all receiving awards.
The sailing was followed up by a buffet supper at the Marina club which proved very popular with the visitors from the USA and New Zealand who had been sailing together around the coast of Malaysia .
