It was so exciting to participate in a race on Hiraeth for the first time! We has a great start but about half an hour into the race I heard a <em>ping<\/em>, looked behind me and sure enough our dinghy had slipped off the painter carabiner again! Well I didn&#8217;t want to be disqualified from the race so we contacted the &#8220;race committee&#8221; and informed them of our issue. Loretta and Cabot of Gendarme who were coming up behind us managed to snag the dinghy with a boat hook as we were turning around to go back. They met us and released the dinghy allowing us to practice our man overboard maneuver. We finally managed to get the dinghy and tie it back up, this time with a line rather than the carabiner. We started back on our way and somehow still managed to come in fourth out of five boats!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;ve just returned from the Alberg 30 Fall Cruise.
