Hamish (2641km):
6376 days ago 1 categories  BOOM! went my boom, 'the hell?' went I, then - 'oh' - as boom arm and owner fell into the bay while board and rig (most of it) continued on. And up until then the gybe (first of the day) was pretty good. Tried sailing back clew first but it was just too unstable, and it was a pig to waterstart more than once, so gave that away and swapped the boom around, sailing slow-ish-ly back to Manly.
Bugger, would have been a nice day to - a warm-up lap, tune, then blast for a few hours - alas...
Falcon 124, North Ram F8 7.8 (perfect size for today I think).
