The RORC Griffin Team flies around Giraglia! Congratulations to the RORC Griffin Team of Lydia Barber & Josh Dawson for taking runner up in the Eurosaf Mixed Offshore European Championship. Racing in a Figaro 3 provided to the RORC as wild card entry with a free charter and regatta entry. The European Championship is part of the Marina Militare Nastro Rosa Tour. The RORC team of Lydia Barber & Josh Dawson racing San Marco was just under two hours behind the winning Team Anemos sailed by Roberta Fazzana & Andrea Caracci. The RORC Team raced from La Spezia to Genoa via the Giraglia Rock in an elapsed time of 2 days 11 hrs 25 mins 5 secs. Lydia and Josh had a terrific battle at the front of the fleet with just 12 minutes separating second from fourth in a race of nearly two and half days. “Super happy to hold on and finish second in the EUROSAF mixed double handed European Championships!” commented Josh Dawson. “The race was very challenging with every possible set of conditions. We had plenty of drifting, some lightning storms and a fun 25knt blast around Giraglia! “We had a good start and built a five mile lead on Leg One before getting shut down and overtaken behind Elba. The race compressed at the half way point and we then bounced around the top three positions for the rest of the race. Coming into the last 20 miles, we had a small lead in second and tried to hold on through the final shut downs off Genoa. The top four all finished within an hour after 2 and a half days of tight racing. Overall, it has been a great week in Italy!!! Thank you to RORC and the Nastro Rosa tour for the wild card entry.”

Hey guys, I’ve just finished editing this reel/video - which took surprisingly long to edit since I had to squeeze 21 days on the hard into a 1-minute video! 🤪🙈😅 Of course, this video only covers the surface; I’ll go into more detail when I’m uploading the long-format YouTube episode. 😅 As you can see, I’ve decided to repaint my whole boat since I didn’t like the old paint at all. It was grey, there were darker patches everywhere to cover up who knows what, and the YouTube logo that the previous owner painted on was something I just didn’t want on my boat since I personally like simple and clean lines. So now, Sirocco looks brand new and has her name neatly sitting on the bow and stern, and I added my home port of Berlin to the stern of my boat as well, which I’m very proud of (and just realized that I didn’t film the stern at all). 🙈🤪😂 The other jobs included not only the cleaning of the propeller or the new antifoul - I actually had to strip down the old antifoul completely back to the gel coat, to be able to check out a potential patch of delamination that my surveyor informed me about when he surveyed my boat. Unfortunately, the delamination was confirmed by a fiberglass and gel coat mechanic that I hired in Grenada. He actually found another big area of gel coat that was damaged on my keel - which probably happened when the previous owner hit the ground (and promised me that he had it fixed professionally but it didn’t look that way). The mechanic then fixed it and applied the brand new antifoul - so it was altogether way more expensive than the usual annual haul out (and took triple as long as planned) but it had to be done and I’m happy about the results! What do you think - doesn’t Sirocco look fabulous now? 😉🥰⛵️ Cheers guys, Kristina
