2 well known Twelve helms enjoying a bit of R and R?
And as promised to those involved, no sail logos on display.......................................
Jonno to Tom: Forward a little ......
Tom to Jonno: That's as far as I can reach to put the P&B sticker where it will be seen when we are in our usual windy weather trim.
Hyde sails if I am not mistaken. Fantastic agility from Tom
......and 12 sailors always say Merlins aren't tippy!!
Thomas slipped on the first silly little step and fell arse over tit all the way down to the centreboard.
What is this third sail, looking like a balloon?8)
'Your suposed to use a surf board not a centre board and I don't think thats the propper way to hang five anyway'
or
'Thats got rid of the last of the weed'
"Well that's this bailer up again, hopefully it won't leak any more!"
I like "thats got rid of the last of the weed" as the caption competition....
Let the mainsheet out?
I said, ‘Sh!t, Hyde sails and there’s a photographer’, not,
‘shit, hide the sails, there’s a photographer’.
‘See weed, I told you so, now take back what you said about
my trimming.’
‘I told you to leave your fat wallet in the middle of the
boat.’
‘My proper crew never does it like that.’
‘You did that on purpose just cos it was my turn to steer.’
The helm dropped his new expensive sunglasses through the centreboard case.
Helm: "There they are... Right a-bit..."
Crew: "Nearly got them..."
They discovered they were not sailing a N12, so they tried to escape quickly!
Bored with crewing, Tom decides this is the moment to demonstrate his idea for a new Olympic event - 'synchronised sailing'
SPIDER!!!
There is actually an easier way of raising the centreboard.
It was pretty windy - take a look at these spectacular photos taken by John Murrell moments earlier.
