Not a good start.
Our prop fell apart in the Hamble River on the way out. Rescued by Dan
Sanders in Pindars rib. Hoisted out at HYS. Paul Heyes of Key Yachting
kindly lent us an old prop, quickly fixed, by Jack Fenwick then hoisted in
and off to the races again.
But no, that prop failed too. So, towed back by HYS hoisted out, Mr Heyes
provided used prop no 2, hoisted in again and off to the start for the third
and last time.
Started two hours late but in the race.
All credit to Paul Heyes, HYS and Fraxious's never say die crew - especially
Jack Fenwick the ultimate boat fixer.
