Falmouth Classics and Shanties

"Susan J" definitely failed to cross the start, within the allotted 4 minutes, for the final race on Saturday - so no prizes.  However, the strong SW wind continued, the skies cleared and we had a cracking run up Carrick Roads to Turnaware Point and a challenging beat back to Falmouth Haven, with Sarah L on the helm and the skippers beginning to improve their sail handling!

Back alongside, after a brief visit to the Maritime Village stalls on Custom House Quay, we enjoyed the Classics bbq, at the RCYC  with "Bonita" and "Calismarde" crews, now including Deirdre, as well as Jenny, Goff's (aka Steve) wife.  Julie and David enjoyed some shanties at a distance and found an invite to Douarnenez 2020 (July 15-19) in their cockpit on their return, from Moel & Hélène!

The Parade of Sail on Sunday morning was anticipated with some trepidation, given the forecast!
