Sometimes you have to go backwards to fill the sails #motivation #ourladydefiant #yachtracing

We were so close to the finish line you could spit at it! And then the wind shut down, the boat spun 180 degrees in the wrong direction, and so why not finish in reverse! The Richmond Yacht Club often times rewards creativity in their beercan races, so I figured I'd give it a shot. It went over well, and while we weren't awarded a prize bottle of wine, we received high accolades for our creativity. I've proposed a change to the racing rules, which is that motoring is not allowed... unless it's in reverse.
