Crew's Back!!!!

Ah, how well do things go well with crew!

Down wind start with 14 boats and 15+ knots. Windward-leeward course. Decent start. Flawless sail-handling. Crossed the finish line in 4th. Corrected out to 1st! A fun sail!

 But what did I learn?

  1. How is the crew's back? Did she hurt it?

    1. I think what is meant is that the crew has Doc's back.

  2. wow you won - congratulations! You looked good! We had great fun tonite - really surprised ourselves with no chute. I have a green crew of 6 - we will be really tough when they learn the chute.

  4. The ol' cat o' nine tails did the trick on the crew's back, eh?

    Just kidding, Doc. Congratulations on your victory!

  5. If one is no longer learning from one's passtime, perhaps it is past time to move on.

    1. Good point Sailor Hu (huever you are.) Doc and his crew and her back have clearly mastered whatever kind of boat it is they are sailing now. Time to move on to a greater challenge like naked skydiving or underwater tiddlywinks.
