Wind Speed

 Before going out in the boat, I check the wind speed and direction. Bringing the water flow meter also helps me work out the water's current speed. I bring a little science to help with my sailing.

Fun Saiing

 While many members got ready to race, we did fun sailing. Starting before the rest of the fleet, we were rapidly overtaken and lapped several times.

G5 Aurora

Such was the severity of the storm G5 (5 is the limit). We managed to catch these images in Southern England. from 11pm until about 1pm, so we joined hundreds of others seeing this hopefully once-in-a-lifetime experience.

 

Creating Music for the sailing video

 I'm composing, synthesising, and layering tracks to create a suitable soundtrack for the sailing video series. Work still needs to go into the signature tune to make it better and more memorable.

Filming the Steam Engine

 Had the steam engine out with its workshop. Paul was trying to get good angles to see what was going on and how it all worked. The Panasonic camera worked well here with its top handle and adjustable up-facing screen.
