a questiion from a salt virgin - how cold does it get on the salt once the sun goes down ?

It can get quite cool overnight. The thing that makes it cooler is the wind. This can pick up in the afternoon (and actually stop racing) and continue into the night.

Go here for climate statistics for Nonning which is the closest weather observations.

Yeah, last year had a few cool days as well due to the rain.

Always take a warm jacket - and a rain jacket - and a hat - and sunnies - and plenty of water - spare fuel........
