  Today sees the start of the long awaited Sail for Gold regatta. There are a tonne of entries in all the Olympic sailing disciplines. I don't know exactly how many 49ers there are but they certainly
  take up plenty of space in the boat park.

  To describe today in one word you would simply say, Hard. We had really good starts, generally what we thought was a pretty good plan and great boat speed but each race threw something random at us
  that we were generally on the wrong side of.

  The day started bright and very breezy, it looked like great sailing conditions but as soon as the 470 sailors pulled up their sails on the beach you could tell it was howling. Sadly this meant the
  postponement flag was raised to hold us ashore and a five hour wait ensued.
