Contender Worlds In Brisbane – Update

Published by at 16:49 under World's

On Behalf of John Boshier :-

AFTER THE LAST RACE (THE 10TH) CHRIS FINISHED 20TH OUT OF 60.   THE INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION WAS TOUGH AND THAT WAS A VERY GOOD RESULT.
IN A FEW RACES HE DID MUCH BETTER THAN  THE 20TH POSITION ON COMPLETION BUT GENERALLY HE WAS FAIRLY CONSISTENT AT THIS LEVEL.  A VERY SATISFYING OUTCOME.
 
THE UK CONTINGENT STUFFED THEIR 11 BOATS BACK INTO THE SHIPPING CONTAINER YESTERDAY AND HIS FLIGHT OUT IS ON THURSDAY – ARRIVING BACK IN THE UK EARLY FRIDAY.
 
SOMEHOW THE “ECHO” GOT WIND OF IT AND GAVE CHRIS A GOOD REPORT IN THE WEDNESDAY ISSUE  –  EXCEPT THAT THEY CALLED HIM THE SECRETARY INSTEAD OF SAILING SECRETARY .

    Well done me old mate…….I know how tough that fleet is. I tried it. I got the echo article if you want it; it also features Mark Asquith who did well in the 49er Worlds. See you over the weekend.

    Nice one Chris, After all the problems of getting the boat there in one piece, that was a great result and a fantastic holiday as well, I wonder if my Misses would notice if I did a similar thing, Arrr, I can hear the locks getting changed now.
