The Crew
John (Captain) Nicola, Dave, and Ian. THere was a bit of a worry in the ranks when Ian arrived a little late - they thought they would have to work hard like the 'action-man' does it. Go Ian ;-)Course 8
To Rough Rock, Bean Rock, Resolution, and home. A nice loop in winds that seemed like they might die.The Start
Well everyone seems to be back - the start box was busy. We trolled along the line on starboard (grins) but then Pott Black trolled us ;-) We got away well though and looked to drop down to the Devonport side as much as possible without losing speed.Progress
We got out of the tide and cruised down the left of the course towards North Head. Our tactic kept us with the fleet and ahead of the Davidson, however we were looking for the early goose-wing passed North Head to Rough Rock, and the wind kinda followed us around - meaning we had to go a bit higher to get the angle. We thought we had the right decision, but at the mark we rounded in last place (on line).The Result
4th by 2 seconds.
Beer Review: Hancock and Co Pale Ale
Interesting - but not Earth-shattering - well... maybe just OK. Lets see how it does in the voting.
cheers, johnhs
