DOUBLE HANDED RACE:
On Sunday, the 19th November, Dale and Ian entered the Double handed club race, Cape Town to Hout Bay. They got off to a god start, starting with the 0.5oz which they held till off Sea Point where they changed to a Code Zero, which carried them to Clifton. The Genoa was used and then back to the Code Zero. A huge private hole at Sandy bay, then with rising breeze topping at about 35knts, with us with small genoa and a reef. At the sentinal another huge private hole, Code Zero up, till the finish. A quick lunch and back to Cape Town, we motored where there was no wind, in the blow we topped 13knots boat speed. Boat performed well. We would have done well if we could have avoided our "private" holes. Our position was:.... (Pic enclosed of a tern which landed on Dale's head and stayed there for about 5 minutes.)
