2016 Women Skippers Race
|
Ed, Genia, Louise, Moira |
We picked up a couple of last minute crew for this year's WSR. Moira and Louise were great crew, and very patient with me. The weather was beautiful, and the wind started a little more brisk than I would like, but ended very fluky when heading back north through the eastern gap. I almost gave up and started to engine, but waited out the calm spot and finished the race.
Coming back into the lagoon, a bunch of water taxis were lined up to drop off passengers near the ferry dock. One taxi didn't look before heading toward the wall, and cut me off. I went into reverse, Ed hollered at the taxi, and a collision was avoided. Very unnerving, though.
