Enjoy a week without me :D
Not a family trip this time. Delivering a 40 footer with three mates down to Arendal for the X-Yachts Gold Cup regatta. Boat belongs to an old shipmate of mine (harrr). Going together with another boat in the same class some of the way and we will make it a race.
Not gonna participate in the regatta myself but its gonna be a blast. Trip could be done in a couple of days or even in one stint but we have 8 days and we will use them all. First long trip with my friends since i got Mia so im really looking forward to this.
Hoping for lots of wind and little rain, the boat has little in the way of luxury but its fast. Just hope i we dont park it on some rocks ;)
Leaving all the gadgets behind except for the cellphone.

Use a harness to piss to leward this trip and try not to drink on watch this time yah miserable chunk of rail meat.
;)
-
Are you gonna be the rear admiral this time?
-
First Mate
-
Yup im the admiral but not the one with the most experience.
Never drink when sailing. Only a wee shot when arriving at port in the evning.

Dissapointing. :(
Never drink when sailing.
Now I know you're not actually a sailor.

Fair winds Nilson.
Cheers,

Ever sailed drunk lasersailor? Didnt think so ;)
The whole point is that we are going to rig and deliver the boat to the guys who are racing it so we are just glad to get the "job".
-
I have. And I'm not even 21 yet.
-
brilliant.. you are more of a man than i am

Anker lichten - Steuerbord voraus!
have fun Nilsen :)
-
Obviously...
-
Look at it like this, Nilsen:
In a rag-boat you crash at 10 knots, in a powerboat you can be making 30. Drink on the rag boat and not on the powerboat. Hint. Hint.
-
Or look like it like this:
In a powerboat you sit still. In a sailboat you move around a cluttered deck with ropes and winches. It doesnt stop if you fall in either.
-
I would hpe the first order of business for your crew would be a man overboard drill, but your point is taken.
-
Have fun Nilsen..
Sounds like a fun trip for sure.
-
Oh yes. If you are a crew then you can do that but still... You can trip and hit your head, get tangled up and taken under, get the boom in your nuggin or just loose your balance or slip overboard. Even the trip down below can seriously hurt you if you loose your footing.
I have seen a man snap his leg in two (sober) when getting his leg between two steps on the stairs from the cockpit and the galley. He went down face first and broke his lower leg and slammed his face on the "floor"
similar to the stairs in the background of this pic only there was no wall behind the steps. You can imagine how it happened... ewe

I saw a kid get hit so hard in the gut with the boom that his stomach ruptured.
-
ouch!
how did the boom manage to get that much speed and why didnt he just give away? was it a dingy?

Wash down the poop deck and watch out for rogue Sea Men! Enjoy it Nilsen! Green with envy!

Best bet, don't drink while sailing any boat.
Have a good trip.
-
..or wait until you've dropped the pick in some nice safe harbour.

Throw 'im off the bow and drag him down the keel,
Pull 'im up aft and lash him to the wheel,

Just a slightly meaner version.

HA!
Nilsen, someone let the kid on a laser in 35 knot winds. It didn't help that the kid didn't know how to sail.
