The Examiner is about 40 points to our zero right now. We have a one hour window in daylight to get out of Browns Bay and into the Narrows – it opened at midday today and it depends on the time of low water slack tide in the Narrows. Without a motor, we must go through at the very beginning of the flood to avoid the nastiness. Today the wind pinned us against our jetty and even if we could have got off it, it was waay too strong to heathfart directly into it to get out of the harbour safely. One of the benefits of not racing is that it doesn’t matter. We will try again tomorrow. Fish and chips preceeded by a dose of The Compound in an hour or so.
