Most amusing moment this season

Has to be seeing a pedalo out at the starting area in Garda during the RS event with 5 mates with wine and a BBQ. Its a long way from the beach to the starting area!
Anyone else see it?

	Yup! Saw it and was duly impressed! I reckon it was the best part of a mile and a half to the start line!

	They were friends of one of the 600 fleet and yes he did actualy get a burger inbetween races. I was somewhat jealous!! Apparently the pedalos werent allowed over 200 metres away from the rental place.....that rule didnt seem to hold too well!

	The Pedalo's were very useful - one of the 300 fleet may not have made it back to shore were it not for the efforts of a rescue pedalo. (Admittedly he had a rather large hole in the boat.

	Similar but rather classier - at the German FD Nationals in Steinhude, we had a windless day drifting around waiting for a start when a workboat appeared at lunchtime towing a small steel barge onto which some thoughtful soul had loaded a barbecue and the Club chef, who proceeded to cook Bratwurst hotdogs for the entire fleet(52 boats), race comittee and spectators.
