A 50-50 sort of day, but ending on an up, as we realised that Titania of Cowes, the front-runner, and last year's winner, could indeed be caught.... but we needed winds to keep in to actually catch her, whereas in race two they died in the final run to the line.
It's day one, we're feeling pretty good. Results: a third and a second, for five points.
I think I'll leave it at that.
Other than uploading a piccie of a Longtail boat used here in all the Islands round Thailand, and as our main means of transport out to the boats which are anchored out in Kata Bay, on this lovely Phuket Island.

| Carvel planked wooden boats, there's real skill in the building of these. They pop a car engine on the back, and a long drive train to the propeller and off they go! |
Hi Peter,
ReplyDeleteCouple of good results today, looks like the racing was pretty tight which we expected.
Hang loose and good luck tomorrow.
Cheers,
Steveo.
