Mad Gordon

Today's inshore weather forecast was for 5-6 gusting 7 later.
All the other boats in Saffwy's class called it a draw and stayed ashore - apart from Gordon who saw it as a fine opportunity to get a first - assuming he could keep it shiny side up.
He kept it all together and despite showing an unladylike quantity of bottom he got his wish.
A bit expensive though, the genoa didn't like it and got a big rip near the bow fitting.

This is heavily cropped so apologies about the fuzziness.
