New Blogs!

July 5, 2007

We have just introduced Stuart Alexander and Bob Fisher to the blogosphere- go check out their blogs!

Stuart Alexander
Stuart keeps the readers of The Independent sports section updated on every shift in the direction of the wind, with an analytical mind second to none. He is aiming to cover both yachting and rugby with his blog. http://www.stuartalexander.eu/

Bob Fisher
Bob has had his finger on the pulse of sailing for years, and has covered every America’s Cup since 1967. He currently writes for The Observer and The Guardian as well as Sail World. His book “Americas Cup, An Absorbing Interest” is probably the best history of the America’s Cup, right back to 1851. http://www.fishersailing.com/


Weather 30/6

Weather 30/6

We have a very clear and sunny day in Valencia today, with similar conditions to yesterday. The gradient sea breeze is building normally, and should fill in to 10-12 knots by race time. This will make it slightly lighter than yesterday. The pressure is well and truely on now, and today’s race should be a beauty.

Pretty tough to find a place to watch the All Blacks here, but there is a good ticker from Planet Rugby :)

Forecast: Gradient wind continues from the south with good conditions locally for sea breeze development. Similar sea breeze conditions, albeit slightly lighter. Winds start 7-9 knots south southeasterly, building to 10-12 knots and backing to southeast during the race. Some high cloud cover – Temperature 29 degrees
