Old glory

Bruinisse is the last meeting of the year for Benelux mothies. I love the drive up from Antwerp through wetlands. The weather being somewhat unsettled, I counted at least half a dozen rainbows as a low easterly sun got under the grey squalls coming in from the north sea. Saturday was quite breezy and frought with breakdowns. Sunday was more mellow but the race course seemed to have its own dark cloud that kept temperatures at 10 degrees. I politely decided to stay ashore  - this has been a very mellow season and I wasn't in the mood to change that at the last minute.

I was however happy to see Morgan Good get 2nd overall with my old prowler. Still a very pretty and fast boat. Very good of Morgan to have done so well in his first moth race.
