Guest Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 The Sun has gone down my world gone dark My baby has gone away I stood on the wharf and tired not to weep As she sailed out into the bay I cannot Repeat the offending I've done The hand stands are all in the past I'm bound to the land, a solitary man Unable to get out and blast I've paper for sure a Dollar or two That Pales with the loss that I feel No More will we fly neath cloudless sky Nor Water pass neath our keel God Bye Repeat Offender May your new owners treat you with love and respect May you repay them with the joy I have had the past years Link to post Share on other sites

Atom Ant 0 Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I'm bereft, and it was a tough blokey moment standing on the dock watching her leave the river without me on board! Good blast good bye at 18.something knots in the hand over sail though. Mr Megwyns eyes were like saucers Well we still have the Meltdown to sail on and if all else fails we can dust off the Ant and go out and stir up trouble on that. Wont be the same without a recidivist multihull though. Link to post Share on other sites

Megwyn 2 Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 OK, I fess up . . . The displaced Mister Offender, Sir Thank you so very very much. Your beautiful baby is safe in her new home. She gave us a wonderful run for our money! Wet wet wet. Man - I feel like a woman finally now my hair is washed and my skin clean of all that salt water she threw at us!! Mr O clocked 18.5kt with the Old Mr O and AA on board, before we sailed her out of Weiti for the last tme. I shall post a missive on our journey home, once I have things in order. Give me a day or so to get my thoughts together. Thanks AA - for everything! M Link to post Share on other sites

Took up the whole river, thought we would cause one of those dugouts to run into a tree. Safe to say they were not impressed. Link to post Share on other sites
