I hope this is someone on here, don't recall him informing me of his sail number!
Captured this sailor on the way back past Bradwell, I spent the entire race moored off a cruiser watching the boats drift round the coast! BUT they did get up to Walton!

Fatbloke, what boat were you on?

hey, that's me and Stuart on Stuart's boat.

I think we'd just fixed the Spi block by then. 

There was some wind at times; We got twin stringing with the kite up a couple of times.  Then chucked it all away coming up the river while fixing the Spi block.

Slop_Idol - where were you????

I was on the Orange club rib on Saturday and then on Sunday spent most of the day moored up behind a cruiser on another Orange Rib just before the Weymarks/Bradwell Gate drinking tea!

Was a good day, and I did remember to take a pic of Simon. More pictures on my parents computer in Essex, will have to wait till I go back there.

Hope to see everyone next year!

radixon, i was originally sailing on proper job on sunday but we sacked that off due to lack of wind.  so went for a bez up to brightlingsea then wivenhoe in my rib and i took these with my phone (hence the crapness) as we went past.
