A little WARNING.!! π§
"Here lies the body of William Jay, who died claiming he had the Right of Way.
He was right, dead right, as he sailed ahead.
But in the end, might was right, and now he's Dead.!"
Don't be like Jay.
Somebody should get out of the way first... And the person who believes they are the 'Lesser of the two A$$holes' should get out of the way first.

ππ€οΈβ΅... Absolutely beautiful mid-winter's day here in my hometown.
Portishead, Bristol, UK.
β΅π₯οΈ=π°... Change of plans for Leven Point.
This is the first time Leven Point has been rafted up against Jon Seagull, even though they've been within 2 miles of each other.
On Monday, Leven Point is going to be trucked over to Portishead (Bristol, UK).
If you'd like watch the longer video of yesterday, here it is:

Something non sailing just happened... πΏπ¦ππ₯
South Africa has FOUR World Cup Rugby titles!
Most of any country in history of the tournament (and we missed the first two).

Just kidding; RIGIT in Southampton had a gap in their schedule, and because of the connection with Skeleton Crew Sailing allowed me to bring Jon Seagull over as soon as the OGR was underway.
Pav & Matylda are pretty awesome, and I like their "simplicity, reliability, & durability" attitude.
Last minute update from Marc from Skeleton Crew Sailing ahead of the Ocean Globe Race departure.
