My summer holidays by Mateusz

Hi!

My name is Mateusz and I would like to write about my holidays.

At 11 July I drove to Gdynia for Volvo Gdynia Sailing Days. I started in my first big racing in Laser 4.7. This nice sailboat is adapted to racing. It is fast but it’s possible to install in this body a bigger sail – Standart – 7.06 m (I sail on 4.7 meters – the smallest). It is also Radial (5.76 m) – a medium sail.

First from three day – 12 July was the best of all, because wind was a medium. This day was a great for me and I has a good places.

Second day was a very light wind so I didn’t have a chances to good place, because I a little too heavy to this class. At third day a very hard weather. All day was raining so strong and wind a very powerful. The biggest waves has 1,5 meters. I capsize 5 time and this wasn’t nice.

After racing we has a two weeks camp in Puck. Weather was very different, but that was good – we were training in every weather.

This was most interesting camp on this holiday.

See you soon!
