Congrats to SURPRISE, Rebecca, Synbad, Mark, and crew for their class win in the PAC CUP! Syn: can you show us your new trophy clock and beautiful Koa bowls? Unlike PEARL, SURPRISE only had one round up, in a 28 knot squall. Macapuno for who first tells us the driver...
Closer to home ask me which well respected 110 skipper had his anchor shift in the back of his SUV as he rounded a corner yesterday on SFD enroute to Tomales. The anchor fluke hit his propane torch thumb screw and trigger simultaneously, unbelievably igniting the flame. The skipper noticed smoke arising inside the back of his car and pulled over, to discover his tool ditty bag being torched. Lucky that, because above and nearby the flame was his new suit of of red and blue bag sails!
Trivia: what safety gear should one carry when transporting an anchor? The answer is 1) fire extinguisher 2) ?
And if you were wondering, no it was not sleddog. And yes I did see the burned ditty bag.
