The last morning.

We're just now motoring out to the start for the last race. I'm a bit late today due to the celebrations last night. It turns out the because Solan Goose and Jbellino had bad races yesterday I have already won the overall prize!!!

So in theory today is academic but of course I'll race hard. It looks like a sunny down wind run to st Albans head and then inn the finish at the north head channel which leads back into the solent. The conditions will probably suit the symetrically rigged boats so a win today will be difficult.

It will be nothing like yesterday where it turns out I was the only boat to hold a spinnaker from start to finish!! I'm still feeling the adrenalin leaving my body! Or that could be the beer.

I better go put some sails up and get ready...30mins to the start. I hope everyone is having a good weekend! I am.
