Glad my boat and the boats either side of mine are tied down, just gotta hope the ropes hold.

there are a few boats-in-trees at grafham - James the fast cat fleet captain called to say my boat is OK (He'd been up to check) and said it's a bit mad up there - Max speed he saw while he was there was 74mph....

Only a couple of boats were on their side at Netley Sailing Club. Managed to right one but a red Cherub was too entangled with the boat next to it to move. There must be some Cherub sailors on this forum who know who owns it. It was tied down but had picked up the weights!
