PERFORMANCE

The boat that started it all off. A couple of hours ashore with Leigh and Dita passed fiddling with bits I find lying around. The great surprise was how well she sailed, I was hooked and now would never be able to walk past flotsam iin the tide line again. She got 8 instead of 9 beause I felt she heeled just a little too much.
