There I was happily minding my own business off Yarmouth when I spotted a Sailing Boat lashed to the side of a launch out in F4-5 wind against tide.
I was just thinking what a complete salock he was for not towing on a 30 m tow line as he shouted slow down at me
I had seen him struggling in the conditions and I had slowed down about a cable away so I checked my log...............
6.1 knots, (before I attempted again to slow down at his request)
Was his request reasonable ?
At 6 knots the bow drops and we were getting salt spray splashing all over the decks, as soon as we were passed and I opened up to 25 knots we had a dry ride.
I suffered discomfort for this guy and he still shouted at me.
