Another great day at the Duck. Many thanks to all for the close racing.
Duck luck is way more important than boat speed!
A bit cool but a ripper day of close racing. Thanks to Col, Mike and Justin for the recording of such a fun day at the Duck.
Once again the “Duck luck” was a very significant factor.
The Duck is a very special place.
Dare I say it – there is quite a bit of truth in Kermit’s report. Plenty of room in the car park, and a reasonably gentle sail in what at times were very cool conditions.
The ramp leading on to the pontoon was super slippery. We will need to take care for the rest of winter.
Nice of Gerald and Phil to drop in and say hi, and to check on Kermit’s latest tuning techniques.
It seems that I missed an action packed day at the Duck. Was way too windy at my place to consider sailing, especially as my smallest sail is the standard A rig.
The Duck appears to have its own microclimate.
What a ripper day again at the Duck. It might be winter but the sailing was hot. Thanks to all for a great 10 races – well run and sailed in great spirit.
Certainly Kermit provided some wise counsel, however I am of the view that Duck luck was the most significant factor.
Very enjoyable day at the Duck. Thanks to Col and the gang for a great day. Many thanks to Mike for the camera work.
Thanks team. Batteries are now removed from hulls and charged. Strange to be charging batteries without a chance of going sailing.
These are very strange times and a bit testing for some of us. I really look forward to the social contact of our group and miss it when I am unable to do the Tuesday thing at the Duck. The sailing is great but I think that some of us need the social interaction – and I am certainly one of those.
It is great that you are keeping the flag flying Col and in a couple of weeks I hope I am up to having a sail out there as well. Meanwhile I intend to sail at the Canal on Saturdays just because it is physically easier for me there.
So looking forward to all this being over and once again enjoying the thrill of Pink Bits attacking the windward mark on Port tack and hearing you all scream abuse at me!! Just love it.
