happy days dont last forever. but the memories certainly linger on.
and yday was definitely one of the happy days to keep the smile going and onwards to more happy days. so before u enjoy the photos below. here's what happened.

5 of us. all over trained sailors not short of dinghy racing experience. jumped onto the the j24. we bought bread, ham cheese and loads of drinks. and cards too..ha. $4.60 for 4 games of daidee. OMG. mark and jill have done it before. so we just helped them along. the breeze of bout 8-12 knots was great. perfect weather too cos jill wanted to tan and me and gerard wanted to err. stay fairer. haha. so bit of sun and wind for everybody!.

we went to pulau hantu where we chatted and chilled for awhile. mark went awol for awhile cos he went to moor the boat at a more sheltered location. got pretty windy then. that was rather hairy. but thankfully he was okay. and we enjoyed our food and retarded banter on the idyllic and sparse island off the main island of singapore. we swam and "sped" along on the little rubber dinghy. which bouts of insanity for sure.

very quickly tho. too quickly. we had to head back to rsyc cos it was getting late. so we got the sails up. and proceeded downwind back to the club. thats when u see us flying the spinnaker. its HUGE i tell you. lotsa power for the boat. we gybed many times just for fun. but aww it was so fun. (sorry for those who cannot tahan the jargon ah) pictures up ahead. i really cant put the word gybe into laymans terms. ha. so we quickly derigged. and took a splash in the rsyc pool. haha. so fun. what was everyone else doing on a monday. BEAT THAT.

me and greg left the guys after a short dinner at city hall with these huge grins on our face. knowing pretty much that nothing can take away the fun we had today. and we wont be staying off keelboats for long. heh.
