Ski-Yacht Practice in Hyde Park

When event manager Barbara Ehlers thought it would be a good idea to get in some pre-event practice for the RTYC team going to Gstaad to contest the annual ski-yachting competition, she had in mind some radio-control yacht racing on the Round Pond.

But when Barbara takes charge, even the weather knows who is boss. The scene from the Coffee Room window this morning: get here quick, with your boots and skis, before the queue for the chair lift grows too long.
