Thanks Peter,
By the end of the Cat Classic, the message of "gentle and deliberate" was finally sinking in

I think in the rough conditions I still hurry everything (as I stumble in off the wire) and probably stall the boat with the rudders. It was frustrating to be tearing up the PT's with boat speed and then give it all back on the tack. I guess it's just about time on the water.
If I get a chance to slip away on Sat for a while I'm intending to come over to say hello. Can't get off on Sun as I'm Shore Officer for the day.
Hopefully I'll catch you then,
Cheers
