I was sailing at Bala once. A huge storm is rumbling up the lake towards us. Surely the race officer is going to cancel? Apparently not. Well, we go for discretion anyway and head ashore, unsure if we are being prudent or wusses.
A dinghy was hit and a hole a couple of inches in diameter was blown out of their transom. No other damage to crew or kit. Not a great decision to start the race, IMO. I wonder if they mentioned that incident when they sold the dinghy on. Edited by blueboy - 23 Oct 13 at 7:13pm |
