Got Wet This Week

It was intentional though as we had a capsize exercsie as part of the course this week. It's quite a strange feeling when the boat starts to fill with water a begins to tip towards you. Then your'e in the water and it's a little on the cold side. Swim around to the other side of the boat a climb up the keel of the boat using the jib sheet. Step on the centre board and then the boat will right itself and scoop the other crew member into the boat.

Fortunately it was the latter part of the day so back to shore for a quick change and a cup of tea.
