With the current interest in '1 hours', I thought I'd try something a little novel and sail downwind for an hour. I launched at Ricketts Point sailed up to Mordialloc and then knuckled down for a 40 minute reach to Williamstown wear I cranked an appalling gybe and fell in before my 2nd reach to St Kilda where I nailed the gybe and sailed back to Port Melbourne.

Probably 'not cricket', but it was loads of fun blasting down some fairly large swell on the Bay. Then a long beat back towards Ricketts Point with the wind packing up as I reached Sandringham. Fortunately I had the sense to have my mobile with me in my buoyancy vest so called a mate (thanks Doug) to give me a lift back to my car.
