The practice race got away at the second attempt under a black flag. The light breeze dropped further making sailing against the slop difficult, finding pressure was key.

Find yourself a Mirror and get to Abersoch this summer. Abersoch beach will be full of Mirror dinghies for a week in mid-August with the Mirror National Championships being run alongside the legendary Abersoch Mirror Week. Mirror Week is a firm favorite with families - the two short races a day off the beach is ideal for the parents, youngsters and beginners - back from racing by lunch time to spend the afternoon on Abersoch's legendary beach. The Mirror Nationals will provide tight racing for the more advanced sailors - mixing with the top squad juniors, experienced parent and child combinations and those who are looking to develop their racing skills. Shared social events, coaching support from the 'experts' and lots of fun - a great week for sailors of all levels. Get yourselves a Mirror and join in the fun - for the whole family.
