Most of the people there were sailors, so Sunday saw dribs and drabs of people arriving at the club with big headaches and not much inclination to go sailing. I got a brief sail in the morning to test a new mods (verdict - good). Alan rocked up with a hangover and the intention of sailing just as I was packing up and heading home.
Earthrace (the round the world record breaking powerboat) is currently parked in Bristol docks so I snapped a few shots while I was on a supply run. They were giving tours around the boat but I had to get back to work. It looks sweet, but is a complete rip-off of a Nigel Irens designed powerboat-tri from the 80's called Ilan Voyager which held the round Britain powerboat record. They have done some cool styling bits on it though, which is why I thought it deserved a post...
Anyway, off sailing tomorrow afternoon for a bit, before heading to Hayling for some practice on Sunday.
