I wish I'd been there, I'd have made him look even more dejected with it, didn't look that windy..

Was supposed to be about 4-5knots - but it did not look that windy when I packed up and went home!

So how did our boys get on at the weekend then? I was highly unlikely to make it anyway but that was confirmed once my knee exploded at the end of last week. Did we make a good show of ourselves in the pursuit?

maybe fast - but thats some pretty quick pedestal your putting it on. In my head i also have the skiff about as quick as a 600 on a tight reach and that's a pretty quick boat that will see off most boats.
Its a pity there were not more boats at teh last shout last weekend to compare against...was sad to see the 300 on his own and he was never really close enough to get a good impression of comparitive speed. Edited by Neptune - 15 Nov 10 at 9:52pm |

Neptune, Steve certainly knows his onions regarding the 300, having won the nationals for the last god knows how many years! The 300 is also a flying machine on tight reaches especially on flat water. I would say a PY of a 1000 is pretty quick considering it is a single sailed hiker!!
