We had been doing alright, max speed 10 knots, wind on the beam the whole way up and then a spinnaker run to the finish. Hmmm, spinnaker run. It's traditional to hoist a spinnaker, and attach it to a pole like device on the front of the boat. If you don't do that, it flaps around quite a lot, and generally looks a bit embarrassing. Needless to say Spike owes us all a few beers.
We probably would have been third!
Here's a shot of the skipper enjoying the nice weather...
