Boskop Get-away!

And what an away it was.
Starting with a bang on the Friday night and waking up to howling winds on the Saturday morning, one would have thought that the boats would be land bound. but with an awesome start, so comes the slow afternoon.
With Darts, Lasers and even windsurfers on the water there was much learning on everyone's part. The lack of wind didn't take away the ability of learning and that came in the form of up righting the boats after "force" capsizing.
We were definitely hanging on to the last days of, what could be considered as, summer.
The Saturday night left much to be remembered after the new sets of yellow overalls with team badges were passed around to the new members, and it's only the photos that could jog ones memory of the events. What happens at Boskop stays at Boskop, but not really. The blue paint seemed to follow some home (some need to wash a little more than others)....

The wind might have been nothing to boast about but the host definitely is. The food was delicious and there was plenty to go around while the facilities were clean and beautiful. It's on the cards for another visit.

Good job to the new members, you are now ranked as official Yacht Club members.
As for those who want to know more about what went down on the Saturday night, Why not try stopping by to an event sometime - after all, what's stopping you?

Until next time,
Keep it Real

P.S. J22 and F1 coming up over the long weekend of April
