Owned No Hurry, an O'day 23-2 for 3(this is our 4th) years.
Today was the first time we "raced" no clue, really should be the name of the boat, but for whatever dumb luck reason, we were first off the line and led for maybe 500 yds.
This was in "no wind" 2-3 mph, awful sailing.
We rounded the buoy, in 2nd place, everyone hunting for wind, suddenly it picked up a little!
We were heeled at 10 degrees, my wife screaming we were going to die, the kids screaming "go faster"!
Maybe 20yds from the finishing line, the wind went to nothing!
Ended up being the closest 45 minute 15yard race ever!
We ended up 4th after rating adjustment, but freaken loved every minute of it!!!
I've been down since my little episode last year, but this may have put a foot up my arse!
We got off the boat, and my wife and kids were jumping!
Awful sailing, some of the worst to date for me, but by far the biggest smile!
Sorry, just wanted to share
