Sunday morning - Emily on foredeck ready for the launch. Many thanks to Richard for allowing us on board Jangada Too, for skippering two great races and for all his patient tuition (especially on rope tidying! Subscribe to: Post Comme...

CSORC Live Race Reports. Monday, 30 May 2011. The CSORC Fastnet Crew have now completed their third RORC race of the season on Blue Juice - the Myth of Malham race held over the late May Bank Holiday weekend. We now have sufficient miles under our belt to meet the Fastnet qualifying criter. Ia and what a way to get there.

http://csorc.blogspot.com/2011/08/saga-continues.html
CSORC Live Race Reports. Thursday, 18 August 2011. We made reasonable progress until about 4pm, when the water pump on the engine started chattering. Thirty minutes later it finally gave up. Leaving us adrift about 5 miles off Plymouth. With little wind and drinking time dwindling, we have admitted defeat and called Sea Start for a tow to Plymouth. Ho hum. 19 August 2011 at 07:34. Hope you made it in OK, guess that wreck sale sounds even more appealing (if you can find a time machine! A plan is forming.

CSORC Live Race Reports. Saturday, 20 August 2011. We spent some time recovering and "rehydrating" courtesy of the 24 hour beer tent (it'd be mean to close it to those arriving after last orders), then spent Friday sorting out various things, eating and wandering around Plymouth, which was looking fantastic in the summer sun, particularly the view from the Hoe. The crew, meanwhile have scattered onto trains, into cars and some even onto other boats. A final big thanks to Trev and all the crew. Sail TV - ...
