The first day we thought them the parts of the boat and the knots and they performed pretty well.
The second day we showed them how to tack and Celeb did a really good job showing the moves.
This day we also had a swimming contest and a game of football till the moment that I(Philippe) got some sand in my eyes. From this day on we also have a new translator.
The third day they went for the first time on the water with their boats and the first hour they were scattered around the beach but after some time they began to enjoy it and they could more or less stay on the track.
Today (Friday) they were reaching pretty well… The only bad thing is that we’re having really big jellyfishes (1,5 to 2 meters span) and the kids are scared of them that they don’t want to sail nor swim.
We even had one girl who just ran of and we had to search for her.
So no wakeboarding anymore. That’s a pity because we were really getting good at this.
Today we prepared some nice spaghetti for our host family and they liked it a lot.
Tomorrow we will try to make them sail close hauled.
That’s it for today
Many grtz from the Weihai team
