Regatta 2014

14 - 21 September 2014

Back in Greece, with Jonathan and an enormous box full of mountain bike, we joined Dave in 'Tropi' (minus the bike) and set off for a week of yacht racing.

 The first evening was very jolly, with traditional costume Greek dancing and the lads from the shanty choir giving an impromptu performance.



I don't seem to have taken any photos while actually sailing - too intense and focused, perhaps.   So the next images I have are from Jonathan's five star hotel to which he retired on day 3 after concussing himself on the boom.  Dave and I with Naomi and Pete who crewed with us for the Regatta joined him for a swim on Friday.  We did rather well in the regatta, coming joint 2nd in our class, but due to an input error that affected our handicap, this wasn't recognised on the night and we missed out on our moment of glory at the prize-giving.  

Much-needed relaxation for our over-taxed skipper!
