Russell, now you mention it i do recall that comedy moment. i have another onr rising up from the depths of my memory bank, ranting at a crew on the old slipway at PSM and being cast adrift by them, it was windy at the time from the NW so you can imagine how easy it was to recover the situation. yet another comedy moment which i believe was caught on film was when taking some visiting windsurfers out in the old club dory rescue boat, failing to get the engine started and a ‘guest’ on board handing me the fuel pipe after 5 minutes of pulling the starter coed, suggesting it might be useful! i feel sure there are many more floating to the surface.

Smiler, another of your ‘memorable moments’ was settling for a quiet tow back to the banks of Injebreck after a messy capsize in your old Ent. Just when you thought you could relax, the safety boat inexplicably decided to put the hammer down…..result, a quick inversion into the pond with the Ent still attached to the tow rope and doing about 10 knots under water. I’m not sure who was driving the RIB at the time but I seem to remember you quickly advised him (and the whole of the Baldwin valley) of your opinion on this manoeuvre! Would have made a great youtube clip….

Since writing this report on Wednesday we have an update. Invitations for the National and Intermediate Tera Squad 2009/10 were received today and in fact five members of the Manx Youth Sailing Squad have been asked to attend this year’s winter training sessions in the UK. Well done Amie, Hannah, Izzy, James and Greg.

Just to say what an enjoyable weekend of sailing it was and how indebted we are to PJ for acting as OOD for all of our races and also Russell for asisting his last weekend. A rare weekend of good weather!
