We were running with a fair bit of extra weight on board...

Currently on sark, very nice little place, will put up a full write up on the Alderney thread Wednesday evening when we get back along with a selection of the best photos taken by everyone

Absolutely gorgeous, the run out to dielette yesterday was reduced down to about 25jkts due to the fog that made you turn back, but our run back with Trevor in blue ray was cloudless all the way as the fog burnt off as we ate. Today has been nice we wet over to guernsey to fill up as we were both running low then blasted back over to sark where we launched the sib and are currently established in the resto (Inc wifi ).

How did you fare went back out?

I believe I may have taken this shot just moments before your 'race'. The finish line photo is being kept secret for the time being to save too much embarassment

If you were racing Mollers, the Committee would have insisted on you being "in ballast" anyway. To make it fair
