Les, well done some impressive results but what happened in the monsoon cup. What crew did you have?
As I say, well done.
Hopefully I will be participating in my first club races this year, have had my 301 for 2 seasons, and have moved up from Enterprises and lasers.

hi dave, thanks. hope you have much success and most importantly, fun in your forthcoming races.
the monsoon cup had no monsoon, what we had was 3-7knts of wind and a 2knt current which had some of us going backwards as well. it was the 2nd race that did us in as we were more than 30mins behind the winner...a mumm30 and was dnf'ed. we did not do well in the first race as well. we sailed this race double handed. the admiral and i.
cheers
