Thanks to all for a great weekend. Ideal little venue and really good facilities in the yatch club, made for really enjoyable couple of days topped of with a good few ciders and sambucas!! Good to meet up with some new faces to.
Thanks again to all involved and see you again some time,
cheers

A Big Thanks to Everyone

I can't wait till the next one If you will have me despite breaking nearly every rule-Wrong side of Bouy,Changing Navigator during the race and speeding in the harbour,To say I loved it is an understatement.Thanks to Bob for putting the event on and everyone involved for a very friendly welcome and a great weekend .My back pains amazingly seamed to have improved but I can't say the same for my Navigator hence the Navigator change, next time I'll use a blow up doll.Thanks Nic

I think it was my Navigators wife taking Video. If it was it will turn up on Facebook in a day or two. Chris Temple-Murray was taking pics so keep an eye on his web site as well.

Set Up Question

Thanks for posting the Video great footage,watching my boat it was very bow up most of the time even with 100 kg of ballast in the front,could I ask any of the proper racers what trim they were running at as most seem to fly a lot flatter.I was only running with very little trim perhaps I should have been trimming right in .I think probably going faster would have given softer landings its just having the balls to do it-great respect to you OCR guys any help appreciated.Nic
PS Jeremy your a nutter-great racing
