three hulls two hands

time for a change from monohulls...trimarans look fun. Scooby III is a 26foot dragonfly. I said I'd never race offshore boats with no heads. I've changed my tune, though it helps that there will only be two of us. Whilst Simon may be thinking 'hell, if she's really useless i can at least sail this alone' I'm still pretty excited about my first double-handed series.













Having blown the cobwebs away with the frostbite & spring series and having remembered that the pointy end goes at the front it seems to be going okay.














We had a bit of a practice in the Solent double (came second despite being in the lead in this photo) and the Channel Triangle is next on the list. New air bottle for the life jacket, perhaps a hand held gps and a bit of route planning & we should be ready.
