Dressing to starboard

Post by ljs »

Have had a problem with the trim on the starboard side of the cockpit seating edge so glued it and pinned it today. Then thought it might suffer if it rained so put up the cockpit tent. In the process, stood on the newly sorted trim and it turned to matchwood.
Tip - if you're on the cc09 and visit my boat, don't wear yer new waterproofs or er any fancy trousers if sitting on the starboard side of the cockpit.

Whilst unwilling to post information of a deeply personal nature concerning shipmates on the forthcoming CC09
Para dresses on the left if that helps

Personally, I dress to port, but that's just really between me and my tailor.

These intimate details known only to one's tailor are mission critical I believe. Without them one quickly assimilates the consequences of the tragic fire that broke out in the Blackpool Tower building some years ago.

No ballroom.
