....well sort of. The alternative RTI, official race in calender on spring bank week-end, Pwllheli round St Tudwals Island and back. We were the only boat to start so race was abandoned, shame really, anyway we claim notional alternative RTI victory! :))

(sorry no piccies 'cause it was foggy for a while)

Half hour before the start I was still trying to rustle the crew from their bunks! So the return favours have cost me dearly. Extra top up cards for daughter, BB guns for son, and for SWMBO..........?

Obviously RTI has mass appeal darn sarf, so why not up here?

Re: BB Guns

BB Guns are kiddies air pellet type guns, fire lightweight plastic pellets, available in toy shops everwhere for a few quids, pretty harmless. Look scarily like real guns, you will find out all about these things when little sailbads grow up into intermediate sailbads:))

If you fancy a day in the Regatta of Wales week, mid August, send pm.
