So, windy for the Risdon Brook Show Day Showdown then eh?
I sailed in last year’s DF65/95 Risdonbrook invitational and I reckon the waves were bigger than the boat!
First time sailing at Risdonbrook and I’d never experienced waves before. I couldn’t work out how to tack and had to jibe when turning corners!
Very nice indeed Mike.
Are you going to print and install the under wing servo arm protectors?
First belly landing might undo all your fine work with attaching the servos if you don’t.
It’s coming along nicely Mike.
I’m glad you went with a black nose so we don’t end up flying the wrong plane! It happens a lot with sailing but would be more disastrous with a plane.
Thanks for the great write up Bodge. If it wasn’t for that yummy mud cake, I would have preferred to forget about the day!
Still great to catch up with the gang ⛵🙂👍
Excellent write up Shorty. The small fleet was very good today and everyone tried to do their best but those gusts made it really hard not to “accidentally” infringe other boats.
Great write up Shorty. It was definitely tough in those strong gusts. I just wish I had switched to the B rig sooner!
Big thank you to Trout for the PRO. He kept people honest on the start line.
I’m glad everyone enjoyed the coffee slice (except for Andrew as he doesn’t like coffee!!!). The recipe was a bit different with how they do the icing with butter, chocolate and coffee all together in the microwave at the same time to heat up. I wouldn’t have done it that way and I wasn’t sure how it would work out but you have to follow the recipe.
Well done to the podium placings, esp Buzzy considering he had a DNF on race 2!
