Why did you all let me win!!!:(

At the first mark, I was in a meeting and didn't have a DC set, so both boats ran aground for 2 hours, I dropped to POS 438 overall and 6th in the YBW League. Suddenly today, I've won the YBW league!!:D

TREV or Victorious usually win, but this time the very fast Booby_trapper was running again, and was steaming ahead in the early stages, how come you all went so wide after the last mark letting me slip up the inside;), you guys are all the proper sailors here, I'm just a MOBO'er who doesn't have a boat, and who sails by pure guess work, and yet, I STILL WON!!!!:D:D

Don't get me wrong, I am delighted I BEAT YOU all, and over the moon that I managed to claw myself up to 95th overall after my earlier mistake.

Cheers.

Al.

I haven't got there yet!

Anyway, you obviously haven't heard of protest committees and I am going to lodge a protest when I get to the finish. I've just got to think of a good reason.

My storey is a bit embarrassing, It had been so long since I played and I was in a bit of a rush to set DCs for the first mark that I forgot to use the VMG tool I was at work the next day when It suddenly occurred to me. :mad::mad::mad:
Anyway well done Al. Just hope I get enough time to complete the Transat.
Al.... why so far south on your first tack?

VMG Tool??? I'll kid on I know what that is!!:eek:

Why was I so far south before I tacked?? Err, cause I have no Idea what I'm doing, just like I'm heading so far north now, but the wind is a bout to turn so I should start to head SW shortly!! I hope!!:D:D

As you are all probably well aware, I make it up as I go along!:eek::D

Fun though.

Cheers
