The elephant in the room

St George’s Anzac Day Race was an interesting affair… albeit all over pretty quickly. I had a long list of boat work to do before the start, so I got on the water early and did some testing. Then I came in, made some changes, and went back, then came in and swapped some gear…

But all that stuffing around meant I didn’t make the start. Oh well. I joined in on Dave’s last lap and didn’t manage to pass him around the track.

The rest of the fleet raced around the 4-lap track in close to 30 minutes. All done and dusted by early afternoon.

I stayed out and did some more testing and training. Plenty more still to do.

And today was no better - with a longer list of boatwork, by the time I was finished there was no wind left.

Not my weekend so far. Lucky there’s another day to go.
