Pursuit Race

An alternative to a handicap race, with group starts. Robinetta was in the first group. We went hard aground by the start at Island Point and had to be pulled off by the photographer in his rib. Rushed the sails back up and made the start on time. Destination Wrabness.

The wind died completely by Trinity Dock and the tide was pushing us into the big ships channel so we really felt we had no choice but to turn the engine on for safety.

Lots of boats hung on, everything up and going nowhere. Eventually the wind came back and the fleet hurtled in to Wrabness, a glorious sight.
