Many Thanks to Ashley Perrin

Had a small incident at the leeward mark of the SFYC Resin Regatta on Saturday. Ashley was able to show up the second the boat hit the dock and turned this:

 

 

Into this, allowing us to race Sunday. She wouldn't even let me get her dinner. I owe you, thanks for letting us get back out on the water Sunday.

Its great when you can find someone who understands how important it is to get back out sailing ASAP.

Ashley is certainly a class act.

[NoWorries 0]

Would this sort of thing ahve anything to do with the name of the regatta?

[born2sail 4]

Ashley is certainly a class act.

I'll second that...and she makes damn fine sailing gear, too!

No, I was the guy that rounded the gate the right way that got hit by a boat that rounded from the outside towards the inside of the gate.

OK - if he was such a dumbass, what were you doing back there with him?

 

 

 

 

BTW - nice patch job Ashley.

Thanks, the day an Alerion 28 beats me in a melges around the course I will give my boat away and never sail again.

[Christian 60]

Ashley is certainly a class act.

And she cooks..................pretty well

OH! COME ON NOW!!! If I wern't married, I would have already brought you out! You're hot and cool and ya know it! You'll do well!

[stanlutz 8]

I'm not trying to flame but looks like you did not have too much fun with the 4" grinder, or just blasted away from the inside? How'd you do it? Good photos. paper, etc taped on the outside & did all work on the inside? poly, vinyl, pox? Either way 8 hours, looks great.

[thefuture 3]

Is this a picture of it?

[PressureDrop 0]

If I blow that pic up and read the sail number that is USA 378 which is owned by M24Sailor, sorry man, had to do it. But I would bet that shot is from the Annapolis Noods recently. I'm sure he might have a comment once he finds it, but I wont say the obvious about the duck.

I can't tell a lie.. i almost killed Ashley on the top of the rig going transatlantic..... she spun around the mast head with great style....in a big seaway... Go Ashley have fun....

I've heard about that one from her....

Ash, you rock and are loved by token kiwis!

You live the life the rest of us dream of!!

Me too. It's an epic story. I've learned so much from her over the years. Go Ashley!

Yeah the "plan" the two of you came up with had a couple of holes in it...................just sayin

[DogBalls 11]

Good luck to SCA without Ash. Should something break, it won't get fixed right. Should there be a MOB, there won't be an ISAF certified saftey at sea instructor on board. Should one of the other girls crack a nail, have a heavy flow day, emotional breakdown, be a bitch, they'll be one down.

 

None of this shit would happen with Ash on board.

[pogen 6]

I hope she gets a chance and gets a ride. It will be the best staffing decision the skipper ever made.

Better get that replacement rego sticker sorted out....

Considering it expired six years ago, I wouldn't worry too much about it.

Nice work, Ashley!
