Stag Weekend in Bristol.

A big thank-you to everyone that made my stag weekend so excellent.
It's the big wedding this weekend and it's scary. I was cheered up this morning by our new IRC rating, 0.903  - brilliant news.

Here's a nice picture of Farr Out bowman Dave smoking the shisha on saturday night. Dubi melon if I recall:

Farr Out takes to the Yard



Farr Out came out of the water on Saturday in slashing rain. There she will stay until late march or early april, with a bit of work to be done but not a great deal. It was a lot of work on saturday though, we also managed to get all the sails off and got them measured.

Trophies!

We collected a couple of trophies at the Weymouth Sailing Club presentation evening on Saturday: Spring Long Distance Q class and "Irish Distillers" which was for overall non-IRC sunday series. Great Stuff.

New Year's Day - Win

The Farr Out team started off the New Year well with a first place in the New Year's Day race.

This race was invented last year by Kay Stibbs of Draig, and it was great to see the turnout today. It started off very chilly but Farr Out went well in the 15-20 knots of wind.


Farr Out crew for the race were (L-R) Bob Horton, Dave Evans, Jez Rees, Darren Aston, Tom Lewis (not pictured). Pictured receiving the Champagne donated by Kay and Kev Stibbs from WSC Commodore Mark Bugler.
