Keel boat week

Well now what can I say..... It never happened for the SB3 we set off to race from the beech in a force 4 and by the time we had cleared the sand barrier we had some nice holes in the keel, great! The wind was now up at 30 knots so we went for a mooring, didn't know where ours was so grasped one and asked for help only to get a lecture about how we couldn't stay there but not told were we could go from the assistant bosen, thanks!

   We finally got towed to the right mooring after an hour wait! And headed home for a nice hot shower!! The wind increased to 35 knots over night and the boats on the beech didn't last! so we took the SB3 off the water and headed home, after a rather nice meal at Dave Bradley's which was awesome!!

So not such a good event roll on the worlds!!
