Scuttlebutt Posted November 10, 2013 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 Yesterday (Saturday) I sailed at Manno. we had a front come through just before the start with very gusty 25 knot breezes. It sorted the men from the boys. Darcy plugged on right on the heels of Warren in his super sloop Windi. I went swimming twice as did most other 14 footers. Well done Darcy on showing us how to play in a blow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

korwich Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 Yes all cudos and praise to Darcy, really showed us young pups how to sail in a blow, I pulled out after the 2nd mark, after watching everyone nose dive and capsize I wasn't game to do the reach. Beach and a beer for this boy. As Mark said, there was Wazza trap, jib, etc going hard and Darcy on his cat rigged boat, hiking and right up his arse, excellent stuff to watch, (from the shore).
