Another good one today, literally gave the lead away up the last beat, in my total arrogance of not slapping a cover on what should have been a loser tack to a laser, but got my best handicap result to date of 5th, I'd been dicing with the Laser exchanging the lead back and forth most of the race once the young upstarts in the absurdly well sailed Miracle were put back in their box.
Then as I'm bunging it on the trailer a load of fishing line and the bait bucket I'd been towing for heaven knows how long appeared trailing off the tiller, which could explain why my sailing genius somehow failed to shine through.. Whatever, Topper girl didn't nail me this week and the sun shone and the wind blew on the righteous once more.. excellent day. Edited by iGRF - 23 Mar 14 at 2:13pm |

We just had squalls with dead bits inbetween. Not such a cracking day!

Still didn't make my first day on water in a while, hope the weather will be better the next month.

After last week's horribleness, I'm glad to say today was just lovely. Had friends over, and their 2 small children got their first taste of sailing, in a 2000, with my wife helming, their dad childminding and my daughter entertaining. Meanwhile, rupertson and I had given the Lightnings a good going over in the morning, ready for the Open next weekend, and then had a great sail in the afternoon, playing around and dropping in on the others in the 2000.
What a sunny day was designed for. |

We had a great day yesterday, the second Back On the Water session, and 14 boats turned out, a slightly different 14 from the first Saturday so it bodes well for the season ahead.
Today was crappy, no wind at all so I just did maintenance chores. Useful, but dull.
