OK you're a braggard.

I maintain, at 35 knt wind speed a dinghy is out of the range of managability. Anyone who says otherwise has either never sailed in such winds or is a braggard. Just as a matter of record, Doug what is your club policy on wind strength for abandoning dinghy races? Call me a braggard ...but... We won a heat of an Oz champs in dinghys in conditions that built quickly from around 25 at the start to 35+ after only a few minutes. It was hard work but managable..we were a full leg ahead by the top mark the second time..carried a kite on both downwind legs then backed off and cruised to victory. Oz1...of the 3 twins. I welcome you to crackerbox palace,We've been expecting you. |
