Most Embarrassing Sailing Moment

Very good idea i must say, My friends did a similar but slightly more nasty one at the world that they were at. They used to do two boat timed runs, one from each end of the start line and the other countries started to pick up onthis so they used to intentionaly fix the outcomes on most of them so that others watching would pick the wrong end.

And my most embarsing moment... wel ther have been lots but the funniest was when i sailed a friends lark and capsized but wasnt used to a metal centerplate and decided to accidentaly use it as a spring board, we (me, my crew and the rescue crew) were laughing so hard that we couldnt get the boat up!!!

Yeh goin back and readin all of those makes me think of some realy amusing ones, (hehe this is where i start to embaras my m8s)

1) Cadet Europeans, CZECH REP. my friend un packed his boat and found out that he had left his rudder all the way back in summy essex!!!!!! still hasnt lived that one down.    

2).. the usual leaving kit at events I think i have left 2 cadet covers at ONE event!!! thats some good going..

3) One realy bad set of fotos, i had not rigged my spini properly so got my novice crew to helm and untied the haliard, then proceded to stand on the fore deck facing backwards holding onto the mast, with the haliard in my hand above my head,, all this time the crew kept moving the tiller and nearly throwing me in. Also the angle the photos were taken at it looks slightly like pole dancing, so they decided to put them up on the wall for everyone to see......
