Starting the final day, we are not 100% sure if we are going to be able to sail. It depends upon the new centre board.
I had agreed to meet up with Roger first thing in the morning, as he was hopeful that something could be done. The workshop lent us a belt sander, which Roger used to shave off some extra width from the centre board we had been lent. But the difference in width was too much.
We had to abandon the effort, and miss the last two races.
It has been a great time - 2 days of solid Sea training, and four days of sailing in the 2017 Nationals.
Thank you to everyone who helped us, and those who encouraged us to get back on the water.
We have had lots of fun, some drama, and learnt a lot about GP14 Dinghy Racing
