Sailing with fire.

Classic Racing

Last weekend we went racing. I don't usually race, as I am not really the competative type, but given that it was a bucnh of classic boats, it was as much about the beer and so******ing as it was the competition.

 

We did OK! Despite being only 2 up, we still managed to put in a respectable turn of speed and end up in the top third or so of the fleet. Flying a spinnaker with only 2 was interesting, but we didn't break anything, and she didn't even leak too much after being out of the water for so long. Top weekend all up.
