YACHT RACES !



The finals for the Louis Vuitton Pacific series began today and the sailoffs were tense. Ten teams and nine countries raced against each other, in near perfect conditions, while champagne and nibbles were served on board.







Out on the launch the views were fantastic, the turning of the yachts made them look as if they were going to crash!



The British team were doing well, until their sail got stuck after the turn ( what a noise those sails make) but they look as if they'll still make the finals!





The NZ 'Spirit of Adventure' also watched, not far from us, and everyone on board sounded very excited!



After a full day in the sun, we headed home!
