Dad and I took my boat out Thursday for a race. We crossed the line last each race, but dad kaput sayings don't worry and keep sailing fast. We ended up correcting over a Flying Scott! We got 4th over all. We had a lot of fun.
Saturday we tried to go fishing but it was too windy. I almost got sick! Last night we went for a race in the same kinda wind. I think the boat moves around less with the sails are up....at least that what dad tell me. I think he is right.
Last night my dad and I took out my boat. This was the first time racing since we broke the goose neck. I had a ton of fun and we didn't finish last on any race! Dad says once the new sails arrive, we will be able to go faster and be more competitive. We got 6th place over all beating a club 420 and a laser! I was also the youngest skipper on the racecourse at 11yr old! This sport is addictive
Went racing with did on his boat. We got 3rd.
