    Sardinia

    September 24, 2007

    Back from a week’s holiday on Sardinia. No sailing, but we did get on board Eamonn Conneely’s Patches, which was in Porto Cervo for the TP52 Global Championship. The boat won the 2006 event. Crewman Ronan Grealish, from Galway, was kind enough to give us a tour of the boat.  Everything is made of carbon fibre, including the passarelle which is at the transom climbing up to the pontoon. An amazing Irish boat.

    Also in the port, we spotted in the distance the distinctive shape of a Laser SB3, somewhat dwarfed by its neighbours.
