and give our students that little bit extra

Can't argue with that; maybe Hot Liquids' future is with training the SBS ?!

Training ducks in a Mothercare paddling pool. Might manage that Ok.

Glad you are okay. However, we only have your word, an invisible avatar, that you were the crew. It would be easy for someone to come on here and add fuel to to fire. Just playing devils advocate.

It may be better to keep your opinions for any investigation. I would also recommend that you contact the RYA. If you were on an RYA course then they will investigate injury on RYA courses. I am not sure what they do if it's not an RYA course.

All the best and sailing is a great activity if carried out responsibly. I do hope you stick with the sport.

I think he's quite right to give his opinions now, considering what happened I wouldn't want anybody else to go through the same. I think if there had been any fatalities a manslaughter enquiry could well be underway now.
I agree with the advice to contact the RYA.

With the right boat & crew I'll sail in a 10 anyday..... just as long as we have a pleasant destination with good food & great beer…. plus totty & live music always a bonus....

If you haven’t been out in these conditions for a while it will take a couple of days to become acclimatised, empty the contents of your stomach, acquire your sea legs & start to eat & function again….. but that’s just all part of sailing.

With a few years under my belt on this forum, one thing I have noticed is that my fellow forumites will happily argue black is white between each other.

Never before have I seen a tread, let alone over 230 posts, where everyone is totally in agreement with what they are saying.

The sense of outrage is palpable.
