St Helena Cupping

The “Talk-It-Up Cup” was again in full flight last night with yachties of all sorts gathering to sign on, bitch and whinge about their handicaps and have a giggle with competing crews all in the name of the 50th St Helena Cup.

The crew shirt which has not seen the light of day since my return from Hamilton Island Race Week in now covering my multi coloured tanned arms ready to take on the races around the multitude of islands.

But for now I must venture to an outlet supplying cans in a carton and make my way to the vessel in waiting.

A new camera has been purchased so both lens and guns will be blazing as the mighty Quest again smacks the start line but this time with over 130 others all fighting for the same cause - to beat the low tide home.
