Cowes Round Island Race - Sat

[Captain Chaos]

Friday nights dodgy vindaloo comes back to haunt the navugator of V16 as all the boats head out to the start line.

I Extreme it Too

Caughing & spluttering its way out to the start sounding like a demented lambretta..

I wonder who 1st built that lump

Mr Noisy

Probably my only decent photo of the day:

It seems Matt's hard work with the spanners on Friday had paid off, Mr Noisy in full throws as he heads round the Needles...

...looking easy, sounding awesome!

Shame about my lack of Zoom!

Carly Baby seems to have shaken off his hangover.

Personal Interest

A Phantom 21 in the Basic Race. Not sure of its final position, but it came around the needles with a fair sized swell...in nice shape.

Mr Noiseless

Brought to his knees by shoddy workmanship

Mr noisy limps home......a shadow of his former self!

In the Pits

P21 "The patriot" sits alongside a monster rib, prizes fro what the hell C49 was.............it baffled me??

 

[Captain Chaos]

Special Phantom

A race deck phantom from a previous era???

quite a contrast as it sported its obviousely original interior and a brand new optimax!

Big Ba6tards!

Wetpunkt sits proud with some awesome graphics, with a Sunseeker Xs in the foreground, the awesome Buzzi behind.....& catch a wee glimpse of simons cat top left!

I assume these would have been the cowes torquey boats.......I'll hae to wait to next year to see those.

Great piccies, Cap'n. A real treat for those of us who weren't fortunate enough to be there! Cheers!

Wonderful pics Captain, but lets be fair. We were just 'Mr. Semi-Quiet' on our 3 hour trip back to the pits. St. Cats to Cowes at 6 knots. Now I know what sailing is like and I hate sailing.

One more thing, the more I think about it the more I think that your comment about Matt and Johnsons's engineering skills is right. If it wasn't for their interference, I would be now looking at a nice shiny trophy instead of a ceiling that needs painting. Those bs.....tds!

 

[Captain Chaos]

now now ned!

be kind

I was planning to collect the trophy from 7-11
