| Pah!! I'm astonished that anybody would be brave enough to post such a
| poor performance on the Internet.

Yes Donal, in retrospect I could've alluded to higher speeds and made
repeated outrageous claims.... but that course is sailed by too many here
already.

| I could drop my anchor in the Alderny race and record higher figures on my
| log!

Oh.. I'm certain! 12 knots at least.

| Maybe I will have to take a camera next time I go sailing.

Yes indeed.....

| Just a few photos from my trip to bring Overproof back to Shag Bay

from

marina

to

Shag
| Bay
| and the Gull Rocks. A nice shot of my "dinghy".. an 18 foot single

hand
| Dory. I saw what I believe to be a competitor in the Marblehead

Race...
| taking some R&R at the hook in Prospect. I even included one for MC of
my
| display on the log.... ;-D

Thanks John..... it's a great place to sail around here. I've got the best
of both worlds to play in.... open ocean or deep bays and harbours with
Islands and lots of quiet anchorages. It's great to spend some time on the
ocean and sail back to a scenic harbour to have dinner at one of the many
seaside restaurants.

Well YEAH.... I took a wild guess with a chance of probability about as
remote as your boat achieving 8.5 knots up wind.

Even so.... it's nowhere near the speeds reported by Bob on that C&C 32
rocket cruiser. You wouldn't stand a chance against him in a race. Thank
gawd for you he doesn't race eh?

Meant to ask earlier, why is the water that strange colour and
not a healthy brown? isn't there enough sunlight?
