Alistair Skinner and crew in   Shanghai, China joined us all in calm but sunny sail from the Shanghai Boat & Yacht Club

We had around 30 people out near Shanghai on a totally windless afternoon.

If only they had got up ond out early they would have enjoyed a nice sunrise sail. As it was myself (Alistair) my girlfriend Li Li, Club Bosun Neil Gould and member Markus Winter headed out at dawn. I have attached 2 pics, both on my Quarter Tonner - 4 Dragons. One with Neil Gould, Shanghai Boat & Yacht Club burgee and rising sun all in shot and the other with myself, Neil and Li Li and the barely risen sun reflecting on the water behind.

A beautiful morning, definitely worth getting up early for.

Sadly, by the time the 'day' sailors arrived, the wind had shut down, as it can sometimes here in summer.
