I’d just passed my dinghy sailing certificate and now I wanted warm waters to practise (and capsize) in

Flying along with a big grin on my face, the perfect reward for all my efforts

The beach staff and instructors would also be immediately on hand to guide you back in when the time came

I can’t deny that I was disappointed by the weather, or should I say the excess of it
