Lady Skippers Day 2013



                                   It was Lady Skippers Day


 

That Day we all look forward to..

when women of the Port Curtis Sailing Club
not only grace our yachts with beauty,
good humour,
with sound advice ,
and a careful lookout


but take command

 
grasp the helm,



cast the lines ,

stock enough Champagne to get us through,


and take our men to the great adventure of

Women on Water

Now according to Tony ( Observer Friday 23rd August)

"A woman should be on the helm at all times"

 
Evan if sometimes it feels like bondage!!
 
On No Problem , ever ,
 
we were shown the ropes early ...
 

I delegated the skipper job out to Maria

 
and Maree
 
 
Rag Top had Lynne calling the paces



On Miss Behaviour they were still baptising the team



the crew were looking relaxed

and worry free

 
Up and down round and round , the kites were a pretty site
 


Claire had the commanding position


She wasn't afraid to chase us down..



she didn't scare Maria ...


come get us !!!

 
 Maryke wasn't far behind



while the three wise guys

kept their counsel..


Dave was happy to take a womans advice



but Michello


was not quite so sure

 
 
 
all over for another year
