Who’s In The Wrong: RC Edition
March 19th, 2008
This one from LSD reader Brad…
I’m in the white boat on port. We are within the 4 boat length rule from the bottom mark. When this photo was taken we are approx 1 1/2 boat lengths to the mark.
We are all on starboard coming into bottom mark (mark is to the left of my bow) and we are all hit by a massive gust (15knots) and boat 22 rounds up and gets hooked to my side stay. The force of all 3 boats turns me around onto port. I pull the sails on to try and get off but to no avail. The outcome is all 4 boats hit the rocks and I untangle them. All 3 do a penalty we finish, me 9th,22 11th, yellow boat 12th and grey boat 13th. Not a good last race
