Guest Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Well done to Jamie on an taking a gun! The boat was smoking on the last work in conditions that qp usually puts time on all the 727s. I'm worried about the future! Bloody sure I heard more than just that one boat expressing glee at them getting that gun :) Can knock BF though. She's looking very hot and was sailed damn well so was a step ahead of the rest of the fleet all weekend. Whoever it was has done a magnificent rebuild. I suspected she'd be the one to beat but was sort of hoping Team BF wasn't quite as flash as they turned out to be. The weapon is back!!! Was great to see the 727's bashing it out and looking good while they did it. Some good looking boats there team, nice work. Good to see they were all pretty close and mixing it up amongst themselves. OK so anyone want to tell us why Freaky put it's mast in the water during that last race? I think it was Freaky but knot super sure as all we could see for a while was antifouling and a keel, definitely look like a 'Oh Faaaaarrrrrkkkkkkkkkk!!!!!!' moment of the 1st order. SJ had one of 'those' days today, well off the boil, except for the front 2 obviously. Up the Brotherhood Lost the headsail halyard in R2, used spin halyard for R3 and does that puppy stretch... Oh yes it does. But it was a fun day. Big Ups to John and Panmure for putting in the effort and to BF for coming up to play. Link to post Share on other sites
Quarter Pint 0 Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 U could have climbed the rig? Or next time buy better string for kite halyard, I hear sj may have sources fir such? Or like us, have such old halyards there's no more stretch! Link to post Share on other sites

Quarterback 1 Posted March 6, 2011 Author Share Posted March 6, 2011 To all you sailors thanks for staying with us on the water a bit wet on Sat. and a bag full of wind Sun. 5 guns to BF 1 gun to Quick Nic All six races sailed all be it in the top end of 20kts during the last race, Results are on the pybc.org website under downloads with the line and HCP points todate, will cut and paste them later in the day and post them up.

Guest Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 U could have climbed the rig? Calls for a volunteer went unanswered, everyone suddenly became the fat and heaviest bastard aboard :)Or next time buy better string for kite halyard, I hear sj may have sources fir such? Or like us, have such old halyards there's no more stretch! Or don't lose the right one, vectran, in the 1st place knot me, was it you pulling funny faces at me on Quarter Pint? I was pulling faces at everyone so highly likely. I do believe we may have swapped one of those 'what are the dicks in the cockpit up to now??' faces, a Brotherhood face one could say. Knot that we would every have the cheek to question our cockpit team would we....... Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Well done to Jamie on an taking a gun! The boat was smoking on the last work in conditions that qp usually puts time on all the 727s. I'm worried about the future! Thanks Nathan! I owe a big thanks to Grant, Damon and Colin though.. all I did was tried not to fall off (was very close on several occasions). Really pleased that Quick Nik seems to have potential though. Looking forward to getting that new #1 and hopefully being a bit better in the light. Great to have such close racing amongst the 727s, especially yesterday. Loved some of those downhill rides too! Link to post Share on other sites

If anyone wants to have a quick look at her in the next few weeks, drop into Boatspray and see Craig or Simon. Cheers Stunning! Looks almost like a scaled down V5 AC boat with that long fair overhanging transom and rudder well forward. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 That keel is interesting to see. I was quite intrigued by just how much she wasn't pitching around like the rest of us, she was a lot more settled going thru the water. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Lost the edit button again. So who's going to spill their guts about that 727 who pulled the crazy Ivan that had them dipping their spreaders in the wet stuff?? Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Rocket Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 As I understand it the keel was stuffed up the existing centercase and pinned - a modern foil will have made a huge difference - remember BF originally had all internal ballast and back in the day when we sailed her the four of us were all skinny little 470 sailors - probably 65kg wringing wet each. She would have been much faster with a bunch of fat bastards (like me now...) The guys say they can sal with 6 and there is no weigh in - I would be loading her with rail blubber....
