Butter Feet

Any day but a club championship.

Perfect SE'er on Saturday for our first club/champs. nice pin end start behind Dave at the top.

Going into the second gybe I noticed my back foot was tangled into the shock chord to the control lines. Already committed to the gybe I went across and ended up in the piss with the shock chord snapped and control lines every where. With the boat upright again i was off then into the piss?????

What happened was when the ropes snapped it damaged one of the vang cleats and the cleat stopped gripping the vang, usually not a huge deal, the problem is with the smaller dia masts the camber induces won't stay on the mast without vang tension. Every tack they would pop off so i pulled out of the race.

Dave won by an enormous margin. Luka did not even get to the start with rudder pin issues. Donosan was second with Phil in third and Kylie fourth.

Out this Thursday for repair and training.
