I have to admit I had a little tear in my eye at the presentation. And also a slight smerk on my face considering the age of his boat. 28 years old. I have to thank Ben for going to look at it for me some years ago in Essex.

Orange boats are very fast even if they are 28 years old eh.

Yeah but he still carried the family banner well.... by going the wrong way in the first race! I suddenly looked around and he was about 10th in the GOLD fleet!  As they had started 5 mins before I wasn't that surprised to then see the rescue boat shouting at him that he'd missed out a mark.
