Happy New Year, I suppose!

See above. Had about 5 knots of wind today at best, southerly, but nipped out in a Lightning and took part in a race at the Lagos Yacht Club. Needless to say with barely a gentle breeze in the offing a run was barely possible. Tacking we got a respectable speed, but even with the spinnaker up on a run and the boom out we were barely moving at times. Worst December for sailing in memory at the Lagos Yacht Club, I was told.

Anyway, we're off to Ikoradu tomorrow to canoe up the creek, visit a king and see palm oil refineries. Particularly excited about the canoe part.
