Progress

Slowly but surely we’re making some inroads into the situation
explained yesterday. After Paul blew up and
abused Silja at the cinema last night, he seems to have vented at
least some of his frustration. He actually talked to us in the
boatpark after racing - you’d have to say that was progress.

As far as the racing goes, we sailed fairly ordinarily to finish 6,
3, BFD. Carrying the BFD we’re still 4th overall, so that’s
ok.

The UK race committees seem to like using the black-flag for every
start every time. The only race that hasn’t been black-flagged this
week was the first one, and that was a general recall. I can’t say
I agree with their logic, I’d think it would be better to just OCS
the boats that are over the line, at least giving them the
opportunity to restart and continue racing. Anyway. Hopefully
they’re not so trigger happy next week.
