Suitably "attired" for the
increasing winds were Robin Allardyce and ???? ........ |
Ditto Ian Coxhead with
Ally?? ........ |
By the time Tony and I
got near the far side of Eel Bay (see winged W below), the wind
was honking royally and the thought of a beat all the way to Clayton

beloved centreboard, is champing at the bit :)

Ah, the joys of running
under jib alone in a blow on a nice, hot day!! ........ |

Looks like Ian Coxhead to
me. ........ |
Almost home. Just around
the corner from our docks area. - click here for

means of the vang. ........ |
