Sunday, December 13, 2009. So seeing as we are packing the boats for Perth in a few days and my sore wrist was still playing up a little, I bailed out to save any damage to boat and body. So boat is ready for Perth, I am well off pace but am looking forward to the holiday and the regatta. Posted by Phil Stevenson.
