If theyre moaning that "so and so's boat is faster than mine" anchor the safety boat, tell them to sit in it and watch you win a short race in the "slow boat" that'll teach them! |

im on safety boat on sunday, during "race squd", this translates as getting moaned at by lots of 11-16 year olds that so-and-sos boat is faster than theirs and its not fair. I took to telling them shut up moaning and sail last time, that was after telling them to sheet in and round up and getting a blank look. This time i might try to be helpful.

I'll be out next Sunday. Unfortunately I was doing a duty this last Sunday which looked great on the Medway. About a 3 in the morning and a 4+ after lunch with lots of sun. It's good to see the 4000 class building we had 3 out and a new team joining and another going to look at a boat in the evening. Potentially that will give us 7 boats and the likelyhood of a regular 4 or 5. The nice thing is that there are several assorted boats with similar performance in the fast handicap fleet. So we have the 800s to chase and a 5000 we can sometimes keep up with and then an Osprey or 2 and a couple of 29ers snapping at our heels. We have a 59er too, which gets around the course in a completely different way. Then there are the Musto Skiffs and the Vortexes and even a Canoe to deal with. I guess for completeness I should also mention the 2 Contenders, a V3000 and the 400. So quite a mixture but for the 4000s this always provides some competition - so naturally its a growing class. If anybody in the SE wants to join in then PM me and I'll give you a map - you will be made very welcome. |
