Another good lesson is the affects of land on the wind.
Most sailboats are not found close to Rattlesnake Island on The Broad’s side.
The shape of the hill interferes greatly with the way the wind goes. Even though it is always breezy, (natural air conditioning) it just isn’t right for sailing.
I think someone told me this was called a ghost wind?
