Don Ferguson - Smokin Jibe |
The Skydog Report Tuesday August 28, 2018 Rondeau Bay and away we go. I arrive at eleven am and the parking lot is all but full. They tell me that it has been windy all morning. Les suggests that I set up my 6.3 Ezzy and it get right to it. Les, Don and Annabelle go for a run while I am setting up and by the time I am ready Les comes in and leads me across the bay through the weed patches. Hey this is fun and when I see Les Jibe near the far side I also try a jibe but oh no, I fall as I often do. I try a water start but my knees are not co-operating and I try and try again with no success. I finally give up and les has been waiting close by and says he will drive around and pick me up on shore so I swim with my equipment to shore and after fifty minutes I finally climb up onto shore with Les's help. We get back to the set-up area and Les sets up a 4.7 sail and goes out into the great wind. I pack up and head home. I just don't have the required strength any more. I will try to get in shape for next year. See Ya then. If You Can Help with the Captions email
