The entire year I went almost once per week to the gym and training my upper body in order to be fit to hold up the big lenses and the heavy cameras and now I’m using all this for the mainsail trim.

Soon the coppa will be over and then I’m heading home for a few days before flying to Qingdao and beside the arms I think I was a great to do few days racing before getting again behind the camera despite the results here in Palma are probably the worst I ever remember.

The level in the IRC class is extremely high and most of the boats are crossing the finishing line within 2 minutes and with our rating it’s kind of a mission impossible to be up on the scoring but it’s real fun to be on such a boat in these conditions.

By the way here is a link with some images of our Farr 40

Now I have to speep a bit before we go and trimm aagin mansail for an entire day.
