RCC Meet
Well, not there in our own boat we borrowed a 44’ sloop, s/v Secret Affair, from a very kind Kiwi who we have told tales of before, and, along with the older Prices set off.  Quite scary to be in charge of someone elses boat.  There are some many things to learn quickly.  Not least how not to bump it.
 
The meet was a huge success for all of us.  Hard work for Liz, but rewarding for everyone.
