today was perfect we had so many sailors that we had to stop them from coming onto the floating platform as it was sinking with the weight of them all perfect weather was the order and the fleet took over the canal it was bumper to stern very little room to manoeuvre so most just sailed locked together turning proved difficult as some were beached on Ron’s reef whilst the others were forced to stay together due to the number of boats sailing We sailed a few races but due to the number of boats ….winning was difficult to see as all boats crossed the line together .. some funnies of the day was when some of the fleet crossing the line all together watched in amazement as a frog hopped from one boat to the next ….extraordinary HE WAS DECLARED THE WINNER OPPS BLOODY CAPS CAME ON Ron B had a rough start as his boat wasn’t performing (unlike his bird jogging ) so with the help of our sailing god predator he was soon back with a vengeance sinking several boats and seriously wounding several more a very nice white big yacht expertly sailed by our own Uncle G perfectly timed his entrance into the fleet by putting two yachts in davey jone’s locker so smartly that the owners were still looking for them as we left … with that deed done uncle retired back to the model boat clubs sail thingi a worthy note here was predator sailing his white plastic fantastic 65 the one with his girl friends name on it I mentioned him as he said to me if I don’t mention him he will sink my boat …… Capt’n Pete called in but was not able to sail his 65 due to no space on the water but our lovable kermit gave him the controls of his boat as it wasn’t working HE ( PETE) looked so proud standing on the pylon wobbling the control box so the sailing finished an the BBQ commenced BUT THAT’S ANOTHER STORY BLOODY CAPS
