Hyeres, France
It was another
good day for Team Tunnicliffe at the Semaine Olympique Francaise
here in Hyeres, France. After sitting around waiting for the wind to
fill in, the first group of the day finally got out to complete their
three scheduled races before our group got in the boats to race. We
had four races left in our round, and we won them all, taking
our record to 6-0 and winning our round robin group. With this win, we
advance to the gold group where we will race for seedings for the
quarter-finals.

Hyeres, France
Racing started
today at the Semaine Olympique Francaise, here
in Hyeres, France. It was a beautiful day in southern France with a
light breeze all through the day. Team Tunnicliffe are
in group A for the Match Racers, and meant that we sailed first. We
had a gradient breeze of 4-6kts for our two races. We won both of the
races, and had a bye in the third flight of the round due to a couple
of teams not being able to make it to the event.

Hyeres, France
The whole team finally
arrived in France late last night, after five days of trying, for the Semaine
Olympique Francaise , the fourth stop of the ISAF Sailing World
Cup. Initially our plan was to arrive on Monday of this week, so as
to have a week of training with the Spanish and French teams. However,
our plans changed, to getting here in any way possible before racing
started, thanks to the Ejkilas;dfa;sdfjk (Eyjafjallajokull) volcano. As with
many travelers this past week, we had flights cancelled on us numerous
times, but finally we ended up finding and coordinating three flights
and other modes of transport, that eventually got us here.
