Race Officer Rob Lamb has radioed the competitors to announce that there is currently only about 3 knots of wind in the Solent and to instruct the boats to wait ashore for further instructions. The Race Committee have headed out to sea and will be keeping a watch on the weather situation with a further update by VHF due shortly.
Our photo shows the Committee Boat heading out towards the Bramble post and as you can see pretty much the only signs of life on the water are the wake of the Red Jet which has just passed out of shot.
