Not a stellar race, but we came in third. Short of crew, a couple of "sight seers" on board, a lot of heavy fluky wind and a couple of errors made for a less than textbook day, but there's no such thing as bad sailing. A nice apres-sail wherein I didn't have a curfew but did get to have a couple of drinks. A trip to the yacht club followed by a trip to the captain's house for a bonfire and now home to an empty house.

S'all good, babies.

Note to self: Must NOT attempt to stop a dropping spinnaker under 100 lbs of force (even if it's dropping in error, even if it's YOUR error that caused it to drop) with un-gloved part of your hand.

You'd think I'd have learned that *last* time.

Off to find some ozonol and some ice.

Nighty Night.

Reminds me of a lesson I learned in junior high school: Once you have climbed the rope, do not attempt to slide back down by letting the rope slip in you hands. Ouchy ouchy. The coach was right; not a good idea.
