If your talling about the blue one... we rig capsized as we don't have any halyards due the the extra loadings they put on a mast... The reason we didn't race is my crew/brother went awol.. he is now sacked.

Poorly designed, should build a mast that can cope with it

Quite a lot of people didn't race though, many people missed first start and saw the carnage coming in and thought maybe not such a good idea!!

We were up the bar end, with the class flag above the table. Dinner was good fun, though the food was a little bit dissapointing. On the dance floor we were noticable as the bunch of adults not being adults.

We were in the corner by the door, and it was a battle to keep the door closed, random people kept coming over and opening it and all the girls were getting freezing.. So right where the band were but once the band started we were over by the counters on the right of the band in the little corner bit if i didn't make it clear.. extremely tired

I'm trying to picture it but I can't think of it, I really didn't have that much to drink but it felt like it for some reason..

The lawn mower seemed quite popular with us
