Wow, what a day! Beneteau's to the front of us......Beneteau's to the back of us.....25 knot Southerly....the B57's were in their element. Five B 57's lined up but only four would complete each race.....and yep.....Race 1 didn't really go the way we wanted it to. In arguably the position that would win us the race the outhaul on our mainsail released and we were done for Race 1...OK Losel and Knak Knak may disagree with the potential outcome but we'll never know....so that's how we saw it!
We pulled in near Darling Point, jimmied up the mainsail, licked our wounds......lunch and a beer....and we were ready for Race 2.
The Count fought gallantly but alas more experienced warriors prevailed with Losel providing a clean sweep but closely followed by Knak Knak. Ex Storyteller, now Allchemy III followed us in.
What a day!
