done and dusted |
Thanks to my good friend Jimmy Gubelmann I watched the Women’s Match Race finals. I have rarely seen such good sailing. The boat handling and tactics were superb. Lucy Macgregor was the best today. There was really very little separating any of the contestants. Truly a joy to watch.
This event has been going on since Monday; the girls arriving while we were still finishing our 12 meter era reunion.
