August Series - Thursday 23rd

For various reasons we've missed all of the preceding August series so no hope of a trophy in this one. But it was great to get back out there with a full crew even if it was a little light.

We had a little swap around putting Jack on the bow and Adam in the pit. A bit of an eye opener for Adam I think but we didn't shout too much at him. It all went well really but a big wrap allowed Folio to catch up and overtake. This was great from them as they'd had to pull a 720 after alot of Committee boat end barging from the W class. The Commodore watching from his Merlin Rocket later described it as "appalling".

FarrOut wasn't involved with this business, our start was the new PTF/lee bow tack the fleet which is cracking when you get your timings right. Got this from a dodgy 80s lecture on YouTube. Worth a watch.



Too busy to take photos, so here's one of Stephen and Corrie from last weekend:
